  • Charvel 2nd Batch - Colors Revealed!!!

    Posted yesterday on the Charvel website...



    Oh, and to save you some time, here are the relevant screen caputures from the vid...

    Color swatches. We've seen this one before from the original (later deleted) slide show. From the top, we've got black (the standard color), candy red, candy green, candy tangerine, pagan gold, and candy blue.



    (...Hey, Newc, where's the black and white "bullseye" swatch you swore was there? )

    2nd batch colors revealed. Assuming these are the 2nd batch, candy blue will be for the 2 hum strat, and candy green for either the Tele or SoCal.



    Not revealed in the video: the 3rd model's batch color. But I'm betting it will be pagan gold. It's simple logic and process of elimination. The first run was pagan gold (yellow), candy tangerine (orange) and candy red. With primary colors, red + yellow = orange. So if you follow that logic with the 2nd batch, candy blue + pagan gold (yellow) = candy green.

    Hard to say for sure, but that candy green in the pic looks like it has the top horn contour from a strat. But, then again, they already did pagan gold on the Tele in the first batch. So maybe that pic is of a green Tele, and the SoCal's 2nd batch color is pagan gold. I suspect the latter is true.

        Funny that Candy Red has the White on it.
        Don't forget the corn. It's nutritious, delicious, and ribbed for her pleasure.

          Such a tease. Well ... if the San Dimas Style 1 is going to be candy blue that is a big problem because I will just have to buy one.

            You're right

            Sorry, Shred, I was wrong - it was the red with the white stripe. Coulda swore it was the black, but there ya go

            Thanks for finding the pic!


            And the Green is on the SoCal - you can see the edge of the top horn at the top of the pic.

              The more I look at that pic, the more I think you're right. So, that would make the Tele candy red or tangerine this time.

              ...Although, I suppose the Green could be a proto for the Style 1 from the 3rd run.

                I bet the Style 2 will be Red this time.

                  well a green SoCal would be disappointing here because I want a green SD1.

                  that blue is nice, but I'll have to hold out for the green and enjoy the CT until then.

                        You'd think they could come up with better names for all the colours than "Candy".

                        The blue and green look great.
                        Why so serious?

                          Well, "Candy" colors have been around since the 60s at least. They started off as automotive finishes, and were glossy and deep like candied apples, so they were dubbed "Candy" colors.

                            Look at the red tile - it has a white stripe on the last 1/4 of it.

                              I don't see any white stripe, just reflections.
