Green that is OK: sparkles, metallics, surf and seafoam, light and dark solids and transparents

Green that is horrible and makes me want to smash it on sight: greenburst, almost every green guitar with quilted or flamed maple

 

edit: The post above me offers such a convenient example! I dig the metallic green MM, but the others are making me frown and scroll away quickly.

GREEN, almost suit these 80's-like pointy guitars.

One type of guitar (extreme-pointy metal guitars) where the colour does NO look outta place.

 

You're right, it looks totally at home there, but it also looks terrible! There it is, the very worst type of green in my eyes: greenburst over figured wood. At least it ain't quilt.

It's funny... I'm not a huge fan of green guitars, don't generally like gold hardware, would probably never intentionally add a Bigsby to a guitar and I've never met a Gretsch that's made me want to part with a significant amount of money.

 

Having said that, discounting crazy expensive vintage gear, this is probably the #1 or #2 guitar I'd want on HCEG.

 

:lol:
