Unexpectedly cool or rarely ordered Warmoth finishes?

[PFDarkside]

LOL....I was just getting ready to say the same thing!

FYI, currently slated for August release.

And I like it enough that I have another Meadowhawk headed my way!

I need to get on the list to get a matching headstock..

Another color I think is the best from Warmoth and Fender is candy tangerine. This is warmoth candy tangerine body, and warmoth neck with highly flamed anagre shaft and kingwood fretboard. I've had this neck for about 10 years or more I don't think they offer either of those woods anymore. Pickups are DiMarzio BC2 in the bridge and some vintage DiMarzio/IBZ C2 stacked single coils in the mid and neck. bridge is a SuperVee Bladerunner

Yes!!! #teamcandytangerine

Here's mine:



IMO, all of our Candy finishes are money in the bank.

Oh, now I get it: This is a picture thread!

Candy Red right out of the bed... uh box, I meant box!

Like I said not unexpectedly cool. I expected that.

Start saving your pennies... one of the next special releases will be right up your alley based on these two finishes.

Right on! Those mythical flakes finishes from a couple years ago were awesome! It is something similar to that?

 

[Stratolorian]

Not necessarily overlooked, but Holo Flake is my girlfriend’s favorite so that might be why I’ve got two HSS Strats in that finish. Shamrock Green is probably the rarest finish I’ve ordered.

yes! the holoflake is great, looks incredible under direct lights

It's our version of one of Fender's Am Pro II colors.

Any Telecasters to be included in this flake thang?

Huh. The Fender AM pro II colours seem pretty, er, pedestrian. Unless you're talking about that dark night thing...

If it’s a Mystic Surf Green metallic/flake I’ll lose my mind. That with gold and vintage tint neck is awesome.

I hope the explorations into new paint colors in the future includes a Purple Flake and a platinum pink metallic.

Same surf green pearl is my favorite finish and a flake version would be amazing. I will have to email to see if I can place an order to be painted in that color.

A color I was always weirdly attracted to, but is rarely seen on guitars is metallic brown.

Yes! I have a Fender FSR in root beer flake it’s a unique color. - fender also make the Ultra in Texas Tea which is a dark metallic brown

This is from Tone Guard. Pricey but he doesn’t seem to make anything anymore. You can find other pretty good aluminum pickguards on ebay reverb etc. I just wish they’d make the rounded humbucker corners like Warmoth does but they are all usually squared off. I think I got the last HH rounded corner one from tone guard for another build of mine

Texas tea is really cool, metallic gold with candy brown over.

Black Cherry Metallic, Black Cherry Burst Dye, Washed Black Dye, and Vintage Tint on Black Korina.

While we’re on the topic of flakes, pictures online can’t do justice to Ernie Ball Music Man’s "Mystique" finish.
