Received this one today and it's off to be refinished Friday so this is a before picture.

I've been looking awhile for one that was the right price to do what I want to.

Next post will be after pictures.

I am going to wait and see what’s under the hood. I have a few thoughts rolling around in my confused mind. ; )

Maybe it's the lighting, but that's the greenest Pelham Blue I've ever seen!

It does say aged !!

I have seen other aged pelham blue models before but they had a tint of blue in them. Not this one.

Yes it is definitely green. Not my favorite color for sure.

That's a day-after St. Patty's day green....

What color are you going to?  TV yellow?

Since its going for a Refin, you could change it to soapbars...

I like it, I'd leave it like that
congrats, enjoy it

I'm wondering if it's just the yellowing of the lacquer that is causing this.   Most blue pigments used are pretty stable.

I saw this picture of a strat with Lake Placid Blue and it looks just like your H137!   That's some serious color changing.

If I go with a solid color it will be something like this.

Graffiti Yellow

Looks like someone also installed Jazz Bass pickups in there. And a Jazz Bass control plate! And Jazz Bass bridge. And strings!!
