Cream or Aged for Vintage Pearl P/Guard

[Updown]

:icon_scratch:  Trying to work out which Knobs & Tip & Pickup covers are best matching for Warmoth Vintage Pearl Strat Pickguard, SSS.
It's gotta be that one to match a neck with cream dots, thats been hanging around to long .... getting lonely  :laughing7:
Of cause I had to grab another Strat off the showcase for this neck  :doh: 
Was an impulse buy as soon as it flashed up on the RSS ...... Will show ya when it comes  :icon_biggrin:
(think I've bought a couple like that) ...... thats probably the idea of it.

Anyway ...
I think the Aged Cream is the best match  :dontknow:  to the Vintage Pearl.

The last time I used a vintage pearl pickguard I used aged cream pickups w/ gold hardware. But, the fiddly bits could have just as easily been aged cream as well. I thought it turned out well.

Thats Yummie  :icon_thumright:  and thanks

Yeah was thinking of Gold, But I have a Black Wilkie Trem that I thought I could use ... Blar Blar Blar
Oh well thats life ....
Still think the Vintage Pearl Guard with aged cream covers and knobs etc
Will be right for this build.
Neck is a Strat Rosewood / Rosewood with cream dots.

Think I'll wait till the Body is here (hoping this week  :icon_biggrin: ) to see whats best.

But I think the Gold Wilkie & top jack plate / tuners & maybe the pup covers
might just look better in Gold because of the colour of this body.

:dontknow:  It's one of those tricky colours to work with.
