Help with my '93 Leagcy

[Lobsterjoe]

From the serial #, this three-bolter is a '93. Fingerboard does not look like rosewood; pau ferro maybe? And what is this color? A bit more greener/turquoise than blue despite photo color inaccuracies. Thanks.

First let's fix the photo post.
The link you provided is not to the actual jpeg file, so you need to get the url to the jpeg file. You can post that url as link using the nturl= BBcode,
which will open in a new tab when the link is clicked. Like this:
IMG_4204

If you want the photo inline in your post, you need to get the image url by mousing over to the image and
right click to get a menu list and choose "Copy Image Address". That will copy the url address to your clipboard.
In the Posting editor, select the Img BBcode and paste the url address into the BBcode. Like this:


We have a copy of the 1993-94 G&L Catalog in our Gallery. This catalog has this page showing swatches of each body color available:


There are two colors which it could be, either Emerald Blue or Lake Placid Blue.
If you look at the body under the pickguard where the body color is, you should be able to see which color it actually is.
My guess is that it is Lake Placid Blue Metallic and that the fretboard wood is Rosewood. Maple, Rosewood and Ebony were the only woods offered
for the standard production models of the early '90s Legacy.

If you still are not sure, you could contact Memo Romero [G&L Service Manager] and provide him the Serial Number and
ask him to look it up in the Factory Log to get the body color, fretboard wood, and completion date. His email address is repairs@bbesound.com.

Hope this helps.

It looks like you moved or modified your photo which invalids the original link to the photo.

I can still see your photo album page via the first link but can't seem to post the link to the actual jpeg file for inline viewing.
I can no longer post the the photo inline with the instructions I provided in my first post,
it now give this error message: It was not possible to determine the dimensions of the image.
Perhaps there are some sharing settings which need to set for us to see the photo inline. Can you tell me what changed?

UPDATE:
I just got it working again, by displaying the photo album and then copying the image address as I discribed before:



May have been a temporary problem with the dropbox server, but just a WAG on my part.

Thanks for the assist. Color is Emerald Blue that's yellowed a touch to make look a bit more green.

Thanks for the assist. Color is Belair Blue that's yellowed a touch to make look a bit more green.

I think it is Emerald Blue, as there is no Belair Blue only Belair Green.

Here is your photo, which I ended up downloading and resizing to fit our site, to my GbL Gallery page:

Both your photo and the catalog photo of the SB-1 have metallic finishes, whereas Belair Green is a non-metallic finish and is a lighter green then your guitar.

From the same G&L Catalog as the swatches page I posted before,

See the SB-1 in Emerald Blue:


See the LB-100 in Belair Green:


What do others see?

Yes-Emerald Blue! Edited previous post. Thanks for the help with the photo too.
