Well, the deed is done. I ordered the green one just now (Lime Green Metallic). Images are one thing, but if you look at videos of the two colors, the differences are night and day and the green wins by a mile. The gold hardware on the blue one was also getting uglier every time I looked at it.
I went with new. There are good deals on used ones out there, but not a lot cheaper than new for the ones listed as "Excellent" condition.
I'll finally have my Focus 2000 back, but better!
I hope that was my little seed that germinated.
Gaudy finishes notwithstanding, there are rules about colors on a guitar.
Natural (HS) Black (pups, board), Blue (body) White (PG) Gold (HW) is a Goddamned anxiety attack. Everything is solid stark and too many absurdly-contrasting colors bedecked by gold to underline how unnecessarily busy the fucking thing is. Follow me for more recipes…
ETA: sorry about the bad run of luck on frets… good luck w the used.
