Weststarx Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Hello all! Some of you may remember I invested in a [b][color=#EE82EE]PINK [/color][/b]pickguard for my black precision bass not so long back which you all confirmed looked absolutely disgusting (thanks guys). I dont really like the plain white on a black bass so was wondering what colour pickguards some of you guys use or have changed to that looks good.

Jono Bolton Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Black, tort, or gold adonised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grenadilla Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 It will get attention and possibly bring you fame and fortune as it is! I put a white shell guard on one bass and a black shell pickguard on a light blue bass.Chrome and aluminium pickguards are costly but they look good.Your bass is easy to see on a dark stage.

thebassist Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I think that tortoise shell looks awesome on black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lozz196 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Agree, tort on black with either rosewood or maple is great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heket Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Eh, pink is ok I saw someone selling tooled leather ones on eBay, they were fancy. Or how about mint, or is that too similar to white? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
