to say it straight out: your color choices suck

theres barley any choices for colors on most models. theres maybe like 3 colors at most for any of them. if you look at other companies, they usully have around five. look at jackson, they have over 50(i think) finishes for there american series. i would be much more satisfied with the purchase of my guitar if it was in a color i really liked. atleast have every guitar in black like fender does. just do something about the colors!

I whole-heartedly agree... the color choices do suck... I mean they have alot of colors, you just can only choose a couple or so per guitar...... :-(

especially the JS line... white and black pearl? atleast the champaigne gold is cool... but no trem! oh well...

Yeah, I would have to agree. Especially about Jackson, and as much as I'd hate to say it, look at Fender. I realize Fender's a different monster altogether, but they have choices for solid, transparent, and of course fretboard wood..but I wont get too picky.

I have to agree. I like the setup on the RG570 but whats with the rootbeer brown? Grey nickel's ok, but couldn't they give us just two or three more colors? Might just get one & have it chromed.

Ah yes, remember those days of the 1992-93 catalogs. 90 and 91 wee cool, too.

More colors means more expensive guitars...

I second that. The color schemes need improvement. Either manufacture guitars with many color choices or atleast make them with nuetral color schemes.

That being said, I must say that Ibanez guitars are the nicest looking on this planet.

Welcome to 2003. Henry Ford is in charge of the paint departments at most major manufacturers.

For those crying for more colors, be sure to check out Gibs*n's lineup: white, black and burgundy.
WooHoo.
Compare Ibanez to Fend*r in the "Stock Paint Colors" category as well.

Damn Right!!

OK, if we can't get MORE colors, then how about ones that aren't lame? I mean, New Penny? Rootbeer? And if I see one more silver RG570 on eBay, I'm gonna hurl. (OK, OK, they're not BAD colors, but they're not exactly candy apple red, either...)

Maybe they should do a poll like they did for M&M's - let future buyers pick the new colors for the next year's line up.
