The colour is quite interesting and different than any other Candy Cola I have seen before. It's quite a bit more orange then the usual deep red. Kind of like a rust colour. It also changes in different light. The camera can't really pick it up. The last pick (with the amp) shows the natural colour best as it looks when the guitar is under sunlight.

I love it!

Congratulations! Fine looking guitar there... I wonder if Fender's rumored issues with their paint supplier has anything to do with the slightly different shade of candy cola?.. Didn't they change paint suppliers recently?..

Nice guitar! How close is the color to CAR? I have been trying to find one in Candy Cola to compare, but none here in this area. The pics look close to CAR.

And I like the photos from box to stand...nice job.

that is a gorgeous guitar! I bet it plays and sounds just as good as it looks. I even like the case!

I would definitely keep the cardboard box, not sure why but I do it with more or less everything else I buy :roll:

Are you kidding? I don't know why anybody wouldn't keep it. I sure am! The guitar will probably stay on the stand. The empty case will go in the box when not in use, to save space in the closet.

Beautiful.
Only question, where do you live where there is real sunshine?

Haven't seen the sun here in Kentucky for weeks.
