General Discussion - 2015 FLE
Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
Some great entries this year i think the short list is going to be hard.
Favorite design twist so far are the sword hands on C65-11 & C65-13 would like the blue lume as well, but still leaning towards the C65-07
If some one could add sword hands to this and make it 40mm and add a blue or white lume.

Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
I like some of the C65 but with simple changes
C65 - 05 and C65 -08 change the hour hand to match the minute hand , the finial type tip doesn't work for me
I'm surprised I like the yellow C65 -15 but I do, but would again like to see the hour hand changed and possibly a little deeper yellow, but that may be my screen.
Slim line next
great ideas

I like the C5 SLM -02 and the 05 and 07 as they are.

Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
It's a pity the C5SLM doesn't have a date wheel hidden away under the dial otherwise C5SLM-11 with black numerals but a red date would look quite nice.

Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
Wow. While I love Welshlads slimline white dial and all 12 Roman numerals, the c65 red sunburst is GREAT!!!!! I'm thinking that a tobacco sunburst dial like my Fender Strat would be beautiful too. I'd vote for either of the Welahlad slim or the red c65!!

Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
Maybe my concern is unfounded, but after how the red on the JAG and C9 FLEs turned out, I'm a little bit unsure of CW's ability to match red. I don't think I'd take the chance on a red sunburst. Yeah, 60:60, I know. But I'd rather see an FLE made with some other color.gatehealing wrote:Wow.

Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
How about the tobacco sunburst? Those are all different--part of the uniqueness of each guitar, so matching exact color would be less important.Peteo wrote:Maybe my concern is unfounded, but after how the red on the JAG and C9 FLEs turned out, I'm a little bit unsure of CW's ability to match red.

Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
This is one I'd buy - love the gradient dial, very 70s influenced but modern using the C65 as a base! Good work Goose..

Liking missF's new Slimline design with black dial and white outer ring. Looks very classy and distinctive. Maintains the dressy feel to the C5 whilst still being quite unique.

Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
Not really been too interested in the 2015 fle C5s or C65 so far. A couple of good looking entries as in AVO,s red 12 C5s is very nice but the above from Goose383 is spot on, for me the whole design of this fle needs to be something totally different and not just a colour change.
Well done, this gets my vote.

Re: General Discussion - 2015 FLE
would like to see a Guinness style dial colour.
The really dark ruby red. That looks black but has a red glow in certain lights thinking on the Blue / Black Damasco style.
