I'm not sure the exact colors of "seafoam" or "sonic", but I think white would be perfect for that body. :thumbsup:
 
White.

Cream pup ring, chrome hardware, NOS brass volume, cream/black pup.

Now that would be metal.
 
I like sonic blue.

like this Fender Mustang style:

Cool man. I had a white 800 2210 as my main amp for about 12 years. It was kewl.
 
I completed a musikraft charvel last year. I went w/ double cream pu's on a white body. Followed the rest up w/ brass hardware keeping w/ the sandimas cosmetics. I painted the body myself using reranch nitro paint. It came out great! I've been using this as my main gigging guitar over 3 GMW's.
 
Be careful if you are trying to do a good finish, any speck of anything will show up in white. The others are more forgiving. Also if you put clear nitro over it, it will end up cream.

I think white will look the coolest, followed by sonic blue.

Tack cloth will take care of that and wet sanding will remove anything that may have dropped in.

In a perfect world maybe.
Sometimes it will fall in while the guitar is wet. I don't like to wet sand on guitars during the color or the clear till the final polish if I can get away with it. It is not impossible, just harder than the others, especially with a backyard rig.
 
I am partial to white. maybe white with a different color metallic in the clear coat. kinda like a pearl type of metallic. :confused: :yes:
 
Gonna say white with black hardware. Since you're such a Savatage fan... :lol: :LOL:

Make it a pop-up book style guitar. Nevermind, my nose would get caught on the strings.
