I Will Pick The Best Blue Guitar On The Forum.

[sergiodeblanc]

Of course Sergio’s favorite blue guitar would be a green guitar....

I think it’s blue. And just to be clear, while it may be my favorite... I haven’t decided it’s “The Best” yet.

Oooooo...this is getting interesting now.
What are the criteria for this if it’s not just “Sergio’s least loathed blue guitar”?

I think my guitar is safe now that we're past page 10.
This is hands down my prettiest guitar. Pretty nice to play too.
Its not nice anymore to label by colour, so don't get hung up on what the colour is.
All you really need to see is

but for you voyeur types, the theme continues to the other end of the neck

I have noticed that most of you are a little embarrassed that you own a guitar in this area of the rainbow (damn its hard being politically correct all the time), because you don't like to be seen with them.

I guess I can let you see the rest of the top

And a note to Sergio: when you come to play it, wear an orange shirt.

Bahama Blue is still a shade of blue Does a coral shirt count?!

If I get to do another PS build, it might have to be one like this!

Here’s one that is NOT mine which could be my winner choice (I know, Serge....my opinion doesn’t mean squat).



Now, imagine with black hardware and a jet black ebony board.

THIS ONE - DONE!

It’s still mostly “Sergio’s least loathed guitar” but there are certain factors that’d have to add up to me actually playing it. It could be value, aesthetics, historical significance, and/or if it found it to be particularly functional for my playing... and most likely a combination of all those things.

I like veinbuster’s SCT mostly for the story and the inlay, but would it be something I pick up over one of my non-blue guitars? I’m not so sure.

I nominate this as the most sensible post of the day. I 2nd on multiple levels.

 

[Tosca]

Spin-off thread ideas:
1) Shawn picks the best Kiss song.
2) 11Top picks the best non-ME Satin (?satan) guitar.
3) Sergio picks the best Beatles song.

Jeez.... whatever the shortest one is.

Her Majesty: 23 seconds

 

[Iceman101]

There are a lot of more fancy ones on this thread. but you wil choose this one 4sure.
The color that started it all
: 1991 whale blue (and no fading), wings, small logo, 10 edged into headstock, and old abalone birds.
And don't forget who mentioned "sergio Blue" first (clue: it's in a thread where Shawn asked for advise for his employee build)

Had to look that one up.
I don’t think I will comment. But I want to.

I didn’t even notice the guitar. I’d say she’s a ten, though.

Now I have to find it.

That might be my favorite.

We are now past the deadline. Nothing "official" yet but there have been some hints at a judge's decision.

ps. (If a decision hasn't been made would you still consider a bribe, I mean campaign donation? I should have sent this in a pm shouldn't I?)

I’m from Illinois.... do you think I accept bribes?

 

[dogrocketp]

I thought Illinois and bribes were synonymous...…………..Isn't Illinois the Amerindian word for bribe?

 

[11top]

I’m from Illinois.... I accept bribes

Fixed

Yeah, they’re just good manners, like a gratuity.

 

[Tosca]

So? The dress is blue, what’s you point?

 

[Tosca]

Since dealers are probably reluctant to enter their own personal guitars into this contest...I’ll put this here for a friend.

There may be something in a very similar color (hopefully) showing up on PSF in the coming weeks/months....
