Is this a metallic olive green x185? I'm sure others have seen this but I haven't seen a post about it. I don't see this color for this model on the index of models list. If so, I'm thinking of bidding on it.

:look: I just saw that one and was about to post it. It looks nice and has the phoenix control knobs and looks 100% original. I have the HUM/HUM phoenix in that same color and it looks nice. Let me know if you are bidding and I will not bid as I have others in the works for now. Trying to cure my EGAS but hard to do with so many nice examples of harder to find models showing up every day. Good Luck :up:

I'm on it unless somebody else really wants it.

In response to the original question, I believe this is the 'Graphite' finish, which is a semi metallic Grey color that is sometimes referred to and somewhat looks like Olive Green. Here's Redeye's Graphite Dynasty demonstration with the same H/S/H setup:

You guys go ahead. On second thought, I really need to finish up my amp first before embarking on something else. I would like this but I'm sure there will be others. Good luck though, I hope someone here picks it up.
