What colour pickguard?

[alyctes]

I have a P-ish body which is Shoreline Gold (or close to it). It will have a J-width neck and P-J Bartolinis, and I think it needs a scratchplate.

What colour should the plate be?

Tortoiseshell every time 😂

[discreet]

Mint or Parchment.

I'd have to go with Andy Travis, the Tort with the Shoreline Gold (or close to it).

What is the fretboard wood?

It should be . . . Your favourite Colour!

But if it doesn't suit, or you don't really have a favourite . . . Here's some linkages:

Parchment gets my vote.

[Number6]

Mint green

if the body is in a warmer gold (closer to orange/yellow) go with a cooler color (mint is the best IMO). if its closer to silver/gray go with tort which is warmer. black fits the grayer body too. IMO

Thanks for the pics, excellent idea

These two are closest to the body colour.
