I've read from a few sources that Fender dropped Sonic Blue from their color chart in 1972, but I can't find any trace of a Sonic Blue '70 or '71 Precision. They seemed to have fallen off the face of the earth after 1969. All I've seen are a sea of sunbursts and to a much lesser extent, naturals as well as a sprinkling of a few other colors from those 2 years. Did Fender actually still make a Sonic Blue Precision in '70 or '71?
Thank you
