What colour scratchplate on a vintage white P bass

[boabskiboab]

I am awaiting delivery on my new MIJ P Bass 62 in Vintage White/Rosewwod with a tort pickguard.

I am not a big tort fan, so i would like some opinions on what other colours of scratchers would suit vintage white.

PS. Black is a given

Tort...

Mint Green might look ok

Lets make a rule,

[b]NO OTHER TORT SUGGESTIONS.[/b][i][/i][u][/u]

[Soloshchenko]

Tort. Sorry couldn't resist.

I think people are suggesting it because it is clearly the best colour. Black looks sh*t in my opinion.

Blue perloid is your only other option IMO.

[horribleman]

Anodised gold.

[Clarky]

Gold anodised?

Personally, I'd go for tort

[wateroftyne]

Sorry, but you did ask.

Tort.

But a nice one from Pickguardian. Not the pepperoni crap that passes for tort these days.

[Marcus]

Tort....... Doh !!

[Hamster]

White or tort, but not in that order

[thebeat]

Pink Paisley pattern....coincidentally, i just happen to have one i could sell you.

[boabskiboab]

I think I would rather have the tort

God, no. Tort is awful.

Black's where it's at.

Parchment or Mint Green












Nah - Tort really

[JPJ]

[b][size=6]T[/size][/b]he truth is that
[b][size=6]O[/size][/b]rdinarily, I would have said tort but as there is a
[b][size=6]R[/size][/b]ule against this in this thread, I
[b][size=6]T[/size][/b]hink I'll vote for............

[simon1964]

First choice - black
Second - tort (sorry!)
third - anything other than white

[Greene-Mann]

im another for gold annodised...but personaly, tort (the more brown as apposed to the uber red) looks far better.

[Musky]

Oh come on guys - a white P bass has got to have a black pickguard. It's the law.

[lee650]

My fave is tort!!
so if your selling it on send me some pics, got a tort on my 62 cij reissue but i dont like it, its that modern rubbishy looking tort, and i want somthing more red, anyway i did get a vintage off white pearl scrachplate for my musicman which looks really smart and the same might look great on a white P, otherwise i,d agree with the gold adonised as i think they look great and im sure i saw one on here recently from "niceguyhomer"-good luck with the search - all the best - lee

Blue/green PAISLEY!
