Transparent Cobalt Blue

[busdriver]

Does anyone have pictures of the "Transparent Cobalt Blue" finish? I already searched the web and this forum but couldn't find anything. Ok, there's this small square in the new Jackson catalogue, but I would like to see it on a whole guitar [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Is it just the lighting or is the color on the edges really fading to black?

I bought a SL2H-MAH with that finish from KEvin and my brother should be in a plane bringing it over here to Europe right at this moment! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] Can't wait to get it.

It seems to be a burst pattern (which would make me very happy [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] ) although it seemed to be a plain finish on the very crappy pics my brother sent. I'll have to wait and see.

No actually, it is Trans Cobalt blue...


I had it on order for 3 months. paper work says it, invoice says it and tags say it.

Trans Cobalt Blue.

Perhaps the flash is what is causing an interpretation problem...

Re: Transparent Cobalt Blue

it has the same pattern as my trans black, i thought trans cobalt blue had more of a quilt finish to it. [img]images/icons/cool.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">That's definitely trans cobolt blue, which is a darker shade than plain trans blue, and has a 'burst to black at the edges.

Also, the type of figuring in the wood has nothing to do with the color. A particular color stain is the same, no matter whether it's applied to a flamed or quilted maple top. Quilted maple is only used on the PC1 (w/exclusive colors to that model), SLATQH, maybe one or two others. All other USA Selects - the vast majority of the models - use flamed maple tops on transparent colors.
