| As a lot you know, I'm a steel guitar dealer here in south Mississippi. I'm getting ready to place some orders for new guitars shortly. I always listen to players when they talk about different topics related to PSG. So what I'm asking players to do here is to list the colors they would like on a new guitar in two parts. Part 1 is mica in one color. Part 2 is mica in two colors or two tones. I'll look at the results and order new guitars accordingly. I don't order lacquer guitars because of the high cost involved unless it's a special order. At the moment, I like the dark burgundy mica and for two tones I like the black over red mica combo. |

| Honey Maple over Rosewood is a nice two tone. Black is always a favorite. [This message was edited by Roger Crawford on 20 December 2006 at 06:18 PM.] |

I always thought rosewood looked nice as well. The two-tone Carter Bobby Boggs just sold is also a nice colour combo.

I'm with Chris on the Carter, it caught my eye and I bought it from Bobby. I'll never get to see or play it because it shipped straight to the guy I made a trade with for a Fessy that has the same color as the Deck on the Carter. Black is good for solid color.

This is the best looking steel, I've seen in a lot of years. BTW, it plays as good as it looks! 
Thanks Jeff & Duane for reviving beauty and quality in pedal steels.

I prefer a solid color guitar. Black is usually first choice followed by the typical wood grain or some of the newer stone colors.

| I like the burgundy, or wine color (not purple), with chrome tuners, as a first choice. As a second choice I'd want a light, rich, maple, or maybe pecan, with a distinct woodgrain to it with gold tuners. |

Blood Red, like on my last car, better known as "Arrest me Red". I have a light wood colored one, like Pine, that's really nice looking.
