Cyrene Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 before: after... genuine fender Jazz pickguard in Tort. What do you reckon? Honest answers please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PURPOLARIS Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 It's the tort for me. I think black would look good on it too. It's too pale for a white pickguard imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I like both but the tort is an improvement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 The tort does it for me. Looks very cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrene Posted August 17, 2010 Author Share Posted August 17, 2010 (edited) Thanks people! The Honey blonde looks paler for some reason than it does in the flesh, but i agree, after ogling the Fender website for a while (actually weeks) i decided to change its appearance a bit. I think with a maple fret a black pickguard would look good. Edited August 17, 2010 by Cyrene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray5 Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 No contest, imho. The tort guard wins hands down. Mind you, I do like tort and/or pearl pickguards anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too... applying the tort pick guard is part of my therapy . Thanks for the 'nice bass' comment. It's starting to get a bit of wear now, the nitro is thinning nicely.

Rayman Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 White all the way. Tort looks the dogs on the right colour, to me personally, that's not the right colour for a tort guard. I'd be looking for a cream pearl guard for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vibrating G String Posted August 18, 2010 Share Posted August 18, 2010 I'm another fan of the white, a subtle mint is my favorite on a colored J or P. I know tort is very popular but I can only tolerate it on a sunburst. Like black shoes, a white PG goes with everything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
