My friend Dave has one like this, except a previous owner removed the frets from his (no, I'm not kidding).
Also, Dave's has a custom mirrored pick guard, and a high-mass bridge. I've tried to get pictures of it, but he's offended that I want to post about it here and won't let me.

Cobalt Blarf
This color is apparently called "Factory Blue." Maybe "Luxury-Car-Glo" was already trademarked or something.
Valiant attempt here to make the guitar look better by placing it against the ugliest background ever. It looks like the carpeting they had at my high school!

Probably Yucky For Sure
I realize I'm revisiting a color scheme in what is only like the third actual post here, but this one is pretty awful.

Particularly clear here is the black binding on the back, making the guitar ugly even where you can't see it. This is a twelve-string, too, so you'll be spending plenty of time with those black tuning pegs.
I do kind of like that '70s style case, though.
This is a 1993. It looks a little like a sweater the dad on Pete and Pete wore once in the first season.
Also, in the third picture you can really see how sickeningly glossy the finish is. How do they even get this color of red to reflect that much?

Red and Black 4001
I found this today on eBay and it's actually what made me want to start the blog.
Bonus points for the mismatched knobs and the thumb-rest. That's classy, man!
There's a bunch more pictures at the actual auction.
