Is that be 3 tone Sunburst? Is 1961 too early for that and it's 2 tone sunburst?

Nice one, that's a colour I don't have. I think the Stagemasters will be a good model to look into for some rarer Squier colours. Are those pictures yours? Or just an example of that colour?

Looks like 2 tone sunburst to me.

Here's one that doesn't come up often...this is a Squier Telecaster standard from 1998 I think. It's just dark green, with no metallic.

this is the best picture I could find of it...probably better for reference cause it's when I still had the original neck and white guard on it.

Sherwood Green? Love it.
My Jags refin is Oxford Green which is quite close but has a slight sparkle.

This isn't mine, but its a limited colour - british racing green:

I dont have a decent pic of mine so i grabbed that from google. But yeah, the MIK Stagemasters had some rare colours, i'll try and find some pics...

I cant find the yellow or pink Stagemasters but there are these..






The Showmasters came in similar colours, not sure if they are exactly the same though.

I was under the impression Sherwood green was a metallic finish. I actually thought this one was when I bought it, like the fat teles like the one rob roe bought and esquired around the same time, but it turned out to be a solid color. I think I've also seen standard squire strats in this color as well

Apparently, that's what Fender refered it to. 'Red', as opposed to 'Fiesta Red' or 'Dakota Red'. It's kind of in between the 2.

I think it generally is but those Squiers were also called Sherwood Green. I remember them being around when I started playing guitar

I'm definitely going to have to include 'red', but it's a tough one to find much info on because the big Fender nerds who care about that sort of thing don't like that sort of guitar much and certainly not from the 70s. Saying that even some of the 60s ones used on the more popular guitars are tough to find much info on if it's not considered to add value.

Nice one. Do you have year info for the ones that are/were yours? I definitely want to include the comp stang and CAR jag.

the red jag is a '66 and the compstang is a '72.

here's another faded CAR example, my '67 coronado:
also, my old '82 bullet, which i think was some sort of cream colour(?). aaand might as well post my old '76 natural mustang while i'm here:
edit: i have more pictures of the jag if you want examples of fading. it goes from proper candy apple red on the back to an orangey yellow on the headstock.

I've got an Agave Blue Tele that I'll take pics of tomorrow.

this is amazing

Agave Blue:








Not sure if it's the same as Ice Blue Metallic and they just changed the name.

Some pics of my own Stagemaster. Its really difficult to capture this colour, it bright daylight it looks silver, in other light it looks gold/green.
