Welcome Hoagie. There's some great colours but nothing as recognisable as an orange Gretsch!

Howdie, Hogie! Once I've narrowed down the guitar range, the color becomes an obsessively difficult thing for me to master. In the words of Les Paul, "People listen with their eyes". If something looks cool to people, they think it sounds better. BTW, my orange Orange 2x12 cabinet sounds better than the black one.

Welcome. It's a great time to buy a 5120 - the prices for new ones are lower than the used prices from 3 or 4 months ago.
