Mint green pickguards that aren't too green

[Jono Bolton]

Does anyone know where's good for mint green pickguards that have just a hint of green? A lot that I've looked at are far greener than I would like, border on mushy pea territory.

Have you looked on WD Music website?

Seconding this. I've bought three mint green ones off there and they both looked more 'aged white' than green when mounted.

I guess I got lucky, I picked one up from eBay for about a tenner and it had just a hint of green! It was a few years ago now, but if I manage to dig up a link I'll post it.

I got one from Northwest Guitars that's really nice. £15

Sorry chaps, I found out that Vanson does 'light mint green' which looks just what I'm after. The plate should arrive tomorrow so I'll report back once I've got it.

It arrived, and it looks great; just the slightest hint of mint. I just need DPD to deliver my guitar (delivery after 7pm 😫) so I can see what it looks like in situ.

Did you get the pickguard first? We all know that game.

I got extremely lucky on the off chance. I was after a mint green guard for ages but had that problem of it being way too overdone or just looking cheap. I gave up and purchased a Musiclily Ivory pickguard and waited for it to arrive.

When it did, I was pretty impressed. Fitted my Jazz bass nicely and all the screw holes lined up. The best bit was that it had the smallest of mint green hints to it and it looked amazing against the natural alder on my bass.
