:) I think when they moved to Corona, they started making them in just about every color under the sun.

Your first job as a member of the guitar correctness club would be to buy that guitar to replace the white one you so cavalierly traded into obscurity....at least you will have an even rarer color. Rumor has it the finishing guy went blind after he painted that one. But that's a story for another thread.

Did the add say mint condition, or mint color?

I agree that it would make a great gigging guitar because nobody would steal it.

I'm still looking for a beater, and this might be the holy grail. I'm watching. What a revolting color; makes you almost want to damage it. :lol:

Wanna join our new "Guitar correctness" club? We'll getcha one o' them ribbed cotton tank-top tees to play in. :D
Disclaimer: That color is so far outside of the envelope I actually like it. I mean, c'mon, can't you imagine telling the grandkids, "This is the way it actually came from the factory"? And "It's the only one I've ever seen like this"? :lol:

Back when I was heavily into riding bicycles, Bianchi's standard shade was close to this and was called Celeste and the cognoscenti said it "grows on you". Maybe it does! :lol:

Just got a Bianchi last month (mine's black), but I know exactly what color you're referring to & you're right... looks a helluva lot like the finish on that ridiculous D-25.

Might be the coolest guitar ever Fungus. It's a D25, AND you have to have some major cojones to show up somewhere with it. That it's made in Corona is just gravy. 8)
