All in the title really.

I am looking for photos of this colour, or a description of it from anyone that has seen one.

All that I can find are stock photos which aren't too helpful.

Anyone able to help?

That colour with a dark back would be pretty classy looking, Les Paul meets Duo-Jet...

I never thought that before but it is quite gretchy!

Unfortunately it has a champagne back too, and it is apparently a matt-back, which strikes me as a little odd for a body that is coloured all over

The satin back is normal for the Trad Pro and Trad Pro II.

Some people who find the gloss back and neck on other models to feel "sticky" while playing actually prefer the satin finish over gloss.

I owned one, and traded it to Remcarr here on the forum, he has it up for sale in the classifieds because it was too heavy for his bad back. I loved the finish. It is definitely alot closer to silver in color.

After looking at Pwrmacs pics, it sure looks more silver than anything else.
I thought that champagne was supposed to be lighter color version of GT

It looks exactly like the first photo you posted, only uglier.
Sorry but these just don't do it for me. At all.
Not even nearly as pretty as a Gretsch either btw.
