Years ago I painted my Jazzmaster a similar color. Good surf guitar color.

Amazing! Guitars and cars, they just go together. I've been longing for a restored 57 Chevy. There's a thread in the Off topic section about members and their cars. If you get a chance, go over there and post some more photo's and tell us about it. Did you restore it yourself?

Just right! I'll need to check that out in person (tomorrow?) or I'll burst.

I don't think it'll do a lot of sitting when I get it home, but when it gets a chance to breathe a little it'll look real twinny sitting next to my current favorite;
