Black or White

[chrisg]

I have been rewiring / tidying my MIM tele (saddles / new pups / electrics), and have the option of 2 different pickguards - black or white.  I can't decide, so what do you guys think?

Black.

White looks too much like an off-the-shelf Fender.

I'd was thinking white...but with those bridge saddles I'd go black.

 

[nathan a]

[tfarny]

Just to throw things up a bit, I like the white.

 

[Edin]

White

 

[mayfly]

I'm in the white camp.

...don't hold it against me...

I love vintage looking guitars. I'm saying White.

But if you like 80's stuff, go black. It just has that vibe to me.

White... with no neck pickup :laughing7:

Well that Esquire has really been reliced, and Max was right about the vintage look with the white!

Being a fan of the ol' two-tone vintage car color scheme (white + "x" color), I gotta go with white.

Yeah that was my train of thought.  The Graphtech saddles are what put me into the other camp.

Thanks god!
But it would look could even not reliced

 

[MUYFUE]

Yeah, the white loks more classic.

MY vote is white.

black looks COOL though...but the white is mo' classy

One thing I did with the black was use black screws to try and get a 'custom' look. BTW those aren't the new pups in there. I ended up using a Tonerider vintage set.
