MDWagstaff Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 I love it, I don't think it would work for every music scenario however Quote
skankdelvar Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 I think it looks pretty good. Nicely executed bit of celtic 'fretwork' with little hints of shadows. Light years better than the original faux steel-plate thing and more interesting than a standard MM guard. Quote
hubrad Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 A Facebook friend of mine has one of the first few from this 'plate maker on a MM 5er. Not my thing personally, but looks really good in its way. Quote

Oi - how very dare you - love my checker plate, industrial Ray!! And the plain white come to that 👍 there again I'm willing to accept my taste doesn't always follow the conventional standard 'wisdom' - I once swapped a tort Bongo pg for a much nicer one from a chap in Europe!! Nice work - just not for me though. Not too bling IMO. Sort of Phil Lynott with a Gothic twist. Edited April 24, 2018 by drTStingray Quote
drTStingray Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 (edited) Goes well with the black also. I'm betting the chrome will reflect light as well as the Phil Lynott or Noddy Holder's mirrored top hat 😀 Edited April 24, 2018 by drTStingray Quote
martthebass Posted April 24, 2018 Posted April 24, 2018 I like it but then again my taste could be considered suspect.....as I also like the Starry Night PDN Ray. Quote

And the plain white come to that Fair enuff, sport! I'm not saying that the checker plate is necessarily a bad thing. Indeed, were I in possession of a Sub Ray I'd probably keep it on. But I like the OP's fretted-out Celtic doo-dad better. Quote
Oopsdabassist Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 Cool as F... I'd rock it with pleasure! Quote
EliasMooseblaster Posted April 25, 2018 Posted April 25, 2018 All you need now is a Pentangle tribute band to play it in! Joking aside, I like it. The rest of the guitar is kept relatively understated, so I think it makes a good focal point - it could have been very easy to overdo it and end up with some kind of Celtic Bootsy, so nicely done on keeping it tasteful.
