Was reading about the 6868 and wondered what a "Root Beer" finish was. Can't find a color on the factory website.

Reason I ask is that the 6868 I have on the way off ebay - well, the pictures can't tell me much about the color, but it looks green.

If so, I guess it will be back on ebay. Can't do a green guitar.

There are electric guitar manufacturers that reference a 'root beer' finish. Sort of a warm, dark brown (kind of like root beer) from what I've seen, and usually done in a sunburst sort of way, although the center is more brown. Make sense? Best bet might be to google for 'root beer finish guitar' or something like that.

As far as the green guitar...do you have a link to the pics? Could be a lighting thing from when the pictures were taken.

Here's the link to the pictures. Not a perfect guitar, but a good buy I hope.
