You maybe Trip-in on the Colors but I'm trip-in on the High price Tag.

 

I think the Raw Power would get pretty close in sound with the Maple Body

 

and it's alot Cheeper

The trick is the "Pelham Blue" is "Antique Pelham Blue"...which translates to "aged"...which means throw a little yellow in the topcoat...yellow and blue, last I checked, makes green. The Inverness Green is actually right in the pictures (and in real life has an almost-aqua hue to it like that).

 

I call it a fail. But it's not MF's fault (wow...can't believe I just said that). It's Gibson's for not making a NON-aged Pelham Blue finish which would rock like none-other (just look at the Firebirds, the Grohl signature or the Elliot Easton). Instead it looks like that awful teal color that we all got so sick of seeing on cars in the 90's.
