Whale blue or Faded blue jean?

[megaboogie]

How do you identify between the two colors?
I've owned a whale blue SC which was definitely darker blue than the FBJ PRS I've seen online(never got to see one in person)

My old SC

I won this guitar and waiting on its arrival, the seller did claim it was a FBJ but I am not so sure anymore.

Now this photo looks much closer to FBJ.

The back is blue unlike most FBJ I've seen which had a light brown color

Can anyone tell me which color mine has?

Congrats on the new addition.

The top SC is a whale blue.

The bottom CU24 is called faded blue burst. It was a limited color. They had other colors which I can remember off the top of my head: burnt maple, autumn sky, Livingston lemondrop,

Faded blue jean has a more sky blue-ish color.

Ah, so the CU24 I purchased has yet another different blue color called faded blue burst? now that makes sense.
I actually was wanting a FBJ CU24, but I do like the color and top of this CU24 too.
Can't wait to see how it really looks like in person.
Thank you for clearing it out for me Johnny.

Wood can also take stain differently from what is shown in the stock photos, my Violet Tremonti looked nothing like I thought it would, but still came out amazing.

Thanks guys! The guitar arrived yesterday looking beautiful.
This was my first 24 fret prs to own and the guitar feels and sounds quite different from my 22 fret prs, but I am starting to bond with it on my 2nd day.

Here's a group shot of my prs with the new cu24.

Sweet family! Backline ain't shabby either!
