merciful-evans Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I dont often like blue guitars, but this mod shop LP in Seaweed Sunburst looks right (to me anyway). https://www.gibson.com/en-GB/Electric-Guitar/MOD-RAM022394/Seaweed-Sunburst In fact I like the finishes on a bunch of the current offerings. Even some of the crazy ones. Or maybe I'm just in a good mood? Not good enough to buy one, just looking. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karloff Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 that's a different, interesting color. nice ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Really nice color. Would have picked a different name. Caribbean Blue sounds better than Seaweed... Looks like Gibson has hired a paint mixer guy from Subaru. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 (edited) Most seaweed I’ve seen is green or that huge brown nasty stuff. I guess they are color blind at Gibson. Edited January 5 by Sgt. Pepper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Gibson should have also hired a guy from Sherwin Williams. They come up with all sorts of cool color names. Rose Brocade... Dutch Tile Blue... Pineapple Cream... Tequila Sunrise....Oh, wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murph Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I like it, too, Merciful. I had a Fender bass in the early 80's custom painted by an award winning auto painter in the Phoenix area with a translucent blue, with a fading silver base color that was really a conversation piece. I dig it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dig it. When I bought my P-Bass back about 1985 or so, it was found by my parents' next door neighbor under the bed in a bedroom of a house he evicted some guys from. Was black, and beat to death. I stripped it down completely, had the body painted at work....our DuPont paint salesman got me a quart of "Firemist Blue" (a Cadillac color), laquor. I refinished the Maple neck and bought new decals for it. I paid $100 for it.... got it painted for free.....did have to buy a case....cost me $65. It's the bass I'm playing in my profile photo. I hope one of my grandkids ends up playing bass. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are three of them.....and because they'll inherit all my 'stuff', I record the videos so they'll be able to see their old grandad playing 'their' guitars!

This blue colour is pretty much identical to the blue used for most of the Chinery Blue Guitar collection...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notes_Norton Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 It doesn't look like any seaweed I've seen, but it's a beautiful color and a beautiful guitar. Notes ♫ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merciful-evans Posted January 9 Author Share Posted January 9 Trogly just presented these. This Seaweed burst was his favorite. His taste and mine rarely match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not normally a fan of blue guitars, but seriously liking that odd burst there. ❤️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsongs Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 (edited) Great looking Guitar.. Although, I spend a lot of time at the Beach & have never seen Seaweed that color.. Maybe something like Sunburst Azul.. Edited January 9 by Larsongs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt. Pepper Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 (edited) I want the Bob Ross Happy Little Cloud Burst. Anyone remember another guy who painted on TV and his thing was he used big brushes to paint and called them "Mighty Brush"? Edited January 12 by Sgt.

I live on the coast and see (and smell) them daily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
