Any ideas??? I'm thinking Inverness Green...my wife says Golden Mist Poly...but Polaris White is always a #1 favorite and so is Kerry Green....Pelhamn Blue is cool as well.....Thoughts??? I'd still trade this for a Reverse T bird II!!! Scott???

I like the Inverness Green idea.  I'm also partial to the Tobaccoburst finish.

 I like Polaris White or Pelham Blue. Think about that when you go to sell ;) Joe I don't have a reverse to trade and if I did you'd be giving me a whole bunch of cash. I might trade you even for my unbroken black '76. Opps it's a '77 btw.

How about something radical like a Fender custom colour - fiesta red, burgundy mist, sonic blue?

I want to keep it in the Gibson family...although I did think about the Epiphone custom colors...Sunset yellow, Safflower Blue and Coral. (I think those are the ones.....I do like the Coral idea)

You already know what Coral is going to look like  ;)

FWIW If it's going to a Gibson color I like Inverness Green. If not, my go to is always '60 Mopar colors

The "Gang Green" of those years comes to mind.....  (the color is actually "Sublime")
