Sunset Trans Orange/ Wish It Were Sunset Coral

[darwinohm]

I have been looking for a Sunset Coral fix. I happened to walk in the local GC today and this caught my eye. It is a Fender FSR Tele that was made for the GGC in 2011. It is Mexican build and in perfect condition. I played it and it is now home. The perfect color although I haven't given up on Red! It is a 72 reissue with P90's. I have never seen one and only 300 were made available in this color and black.





It is more Orange than Sunset Coral but it will work for now. --Darwin

Hey Darwin,

Nice score. and cool color too, but I understand if you do a red re-fin.

How is it for weight and tone?

[Nubs]

Nice! You're right, it's not Sunset Coral but it's pretty close. I'm still crossing my fingers that G&L will make SC available soon.

Awesome Axe Darwin, congrats!

Thanks folks.

Sam, it is light at 7 lbs 2 oz. I happen to like p90's and they are clean and the bridge will give a bit of twang. Nice addition to the others that I have. -- Darwin

Darwin,
Wonderfully pretty guitar!
Looks a lot like Venetian Red to me, a favourite 50's Corvette colour, only see-through which is always good of course.
Lovely.

Thanks Nick, it is a nice guitar but can you imagine it without a pickguard. That would be perfect! -- Darwin
