Anyone know what color green this is? I saw a Jazz bass this color a while back and thought it was absolutely gorgeous.
Edit: I did some digging and I THINK it's called Ocean Turquoise, but it doesn't seem to be listed on the Fender site anymore, so I guess it's discontinued. I LOVE that color, whatever it's called!



Why did Salvador Dali cross the road?
Clocks.

Is that Sherwood Green?? Sweet color!

Hard to tell... If its not Sherwood, it could be Ocean Turquoise.






OT is the color I used on my blue-Bach.  The balance of green and blue changes quite a bit depending on the angle and lighting conditions in which you photograph it:

As do those luscious jazz basses!

I'm still Fenderless, but not without cravings....

I'm almost 99% sure this is a Fender Japan '62reissue body in Ocean Turquoise, just like the color on the 75reissue Jazz like Chromium posted.

Whatever it is, it's not Sherwood Green.

Some of you more descent and upstanding LBO's better advise poor Henry of what I meant by that... ;D  ;)

I actually did briefly start up "Ho Total Makeovers", thinking I'd try this as a side business.  It was all going great until Amy Winehouse showed up.

Some projects are too far gone for you to consider.
