Dane's new P-51(help me choose color) - Page 2

well the blue/grey one reminds me of my custom pico, but out of those colours I would get the black/red or the wine colour; but you'll need to bling up the rest of your rig to match or the amp will just stick right out IMO. I agree the gold lettering kinda sux; white is much more preferrable. just for iknterest for you. I sold my pico recently and the custolm colour didnt make any difference whatsoever to the resale; in fact I got more, because justin isnt doing mixed colours anymore. the red/black is rteally cool, but thinking about it now, its a little EMO

Just kidding since I am a bit past that, by 17 years, gag.

Anyway, I would go with a color that says the type of music you like.
Wow, you're old I hope I'm still able to enjoy this hobby in 17 years as much as you seem to do. If I got a P-51 to match my music, it would be splattered with colors.

I saw a pic of this color combination recently in the Forum.

I don't recall seeing that color combo, can you post a link if you remember where you saw it? (could it be in my Webshots??-I need to check later)

My hornet has a green body with gold front, back, and knob for a "green hornet", but I think the blue gray looks kinda nice..

Black is boring and the 2 tone amps look like crap. I say one of the two solid red colors, green or the gold color. From the ones you picked, wine or blue/gray.

It was in the big Mustang thread:



I wonder if someone ever stripped the color away to polish up the case.
This would for sure look awesome, especially in combination with a YoTank case!

The purple basic actually looks much deeper purple in person than in the photos - it looks like pink in the RSA photos.

Here are some pics of my portable rig iterations with the P-51 in it.

I believe that these colors do look much different in person and that's what bothers me. I posted the 2 red/black combos here to compare.







Thanks Ricey20

I still am undecided but I have time to decide. Thanks to all for posting the pics.

I have the black with a red faceplate and it is nice with the brass/gold volume control and the matching silk screening. I like purple too. In something small like this I think it is fun to go with more vibrant colors. Stacy has a nice color but I like purple with a gold faceplate.

Seems like the silkscreen stands out better on the darker face plates. I say solid green. No one has one and its more grown up looking than some of the other combos/colors.

Can you post a pic of yours? I'm leaning towards the Black body with red face/Black knob...I like how the Black hex bolts are "set off", matching the knob.
