Regarde un peu ce site, principalement pour les Wolfgangs mais il y a une page sur les MM:

et aussi pourquoi la couleur s'en va:

Dye (color) Issues - Ever wondered why you will see the same color EVH MM but the colors look very different. According to a tech at Ernie Ball who works on these guitars Music Man used a dye for a long time that was subject to extreme fading and it could happen very quickly. In as little as 6 to 12 months an amber (gold) guitar could completely loose its pigment and look like a Natural. He said he has seen cases where it is impossible to tell the original color was gold. He says the resulting natural look is very cool and really shows off the wood but it is very different. The only way to know the guitar was originally gold is to look it up in the computer and see what it was built as. The "aqua" color is a result of ageing on a trans-blue. Now I like the aqua color in many cases but the bottom line is that they didn't make this color. Ever seen a red one advertised as a unique color such as "dusky rose". This the same effect. The Ernie Ball tech said he just had a purple one in that looked like a trans black. Even after they switched to a different dye he said the guitars will still fade based on their exposure to UV although not as badly as the earlier ones. I have yet to see a purple one that hasn't faded except a new old stock guitar that was left in its case. Peavey developed a UV blocker they put in their paint that keeps this from happening on the Wolfgangs. It isn't in the first year Wolfgangs though, although I have not seen anywhere near the kind of fading in these as the MM's.

Is it Really Green? - Before paying a lot of money for a "rare" green EVH I would check with Ernie Ball to see what the serial number shows it was originally built as. Ernie Ball has been approached by people looking to re-paint their EVH MM Green. Ernie Ball will refuse to do it but that doesn't mean it can't be done someplace else! Green is said to be the third rarest color with 96 total pieces produced. The rarest color is solid black at 16 pieces, followed by solid gold at 26 pieces. These figures come from a very knowledgeable collector who got them from Music Man years ago. I can't say for sure that they are correct.
