Fender color question (seafoam/surf green)

[PFDarkside]

What blue/green/turquoise/ greens has Fender offered? I only know about Surf Green and Seafoam Green, and I can never figure out which is which. Also, was there ever a more "grayed out" green color that is similar to Seafoam but not as intense? I guess something between seafom/surf and Daphne/Sonic blue?

Sorry, I'm describing this terrible. Is there a good site with the different Fender 50's/60's colors?

seafoam green is very green where surf green is a bit washed out looking. same with daphne and sonic. daphne is more vibrant and sonic is washed out. there is also sage green, ocean turquoise, lake placid blue, blue agave, teal green metallic, sky blue, ice blue metallic, surf pearl (great color) and also vintage inca silver strats can turn greenish.

here is fenders color chart.... http://www.fender.com/resources/colors/

Funny, the blue agave on their chart is the same shade as they call (or called) lake placid blue on the MIM Strats.

Thanks Mike. No Seafoam on it...

I think I need a Surf Pearl Jazzmaster with some nasty pickups in it.

Didn't they used to have a "Coral" also?
