Bloody Hell somebody listened to an idea I had :o . You'll be sorry :lol:[/quote]

Well, as I had just got the Gold one in it would be rude not to try it and at least see :lol:

Excellent poll. :D Looking good btw. [/quote]

Thanks also Ou7shined and I always enjoy the easy polls that can be bantered :lol: :lol: :lol:

After some thought on the matter I am going to go for the 2nd place winner of the B/W/B guard eventually as I already have a black 'n' maple P bass with a tort guard so 2 would be silly/greedy.
Other drivers of this decision are that I need a 10 hole '57 format guard for this bass and I don't want to drill this bass for a modern 13 hole guard so that will mean a custom made pickguard.
Then there's the issue of modern tort not looking that authentic compared to the old stuff so I'm not going to take a chance on any of that, especially as it is quite a bit dearer to buy.

All the best,
Jon

So, Got the Gold anodised 'guard through and have fitted it just to have a look!

I didn't think it would work (I voted black) but... it looks great! :gas:

Hi Ian,

I got it from a seller on eBay but they are available to order from lots of places, like Thomann: [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/fender_pckg57p.htm"]http://www.thomann.de/gb/fender_pckg57p.htm[/url]

The Bass Doc did mine from a previous guard which he used as a template.
