Members guitarcat46 Posted March 28, 2011 Members Share Posted March 28, 2011 Hi everyone, I'm in the market for a new Strat, and I'm trying to find a color that is close to one of the colors that is used by the Tampa Bay Rays baseball team. Here are a couple of pictures of the color that I'm looking for: It doesn't have to be an exact match, but whatever Fender color is close enough. I'm thinking it might be Sonic Blue, but I'm not sure. Also, with a light color like this, do Maple fretboards generally look better? Thanks!

Members GilmourD Posted March 28, 2011 Members Share Posted March 28, 2011 Sonic Blue or maybe Daphne Blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Tweedledee Posted March 28, 2011 Members Share Posted March 28, 2011 Sonic Blue or maybe Daphne Blue. +1 on Daphne Blue. I think Sonic Blue might be just a tad bit too light, but Daphne should do the trick. Here's a sample of the Daphne Blue available from ReRanch: Here's their color sample for Sonic Blue: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members brianeharmonjr Posted March 28, 2011 Members Share Posted March 28, 2011 Daphne blue is the closest, though maybe a tad lighter than the OP's desired shade. Sonic blue is a bit lighter still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members guitarcat46 Posted March 28, 2011 Author Members Share Posted March 28, 2011 Thanks everyone for your help! Now that I look at it, Daphne Blue does look like a closer match. Sonic blue looks pretty cool too though. I'm going to check out one of the Classic Series '50s Strats in Daphne Blue, and see how I like it.
