I need a body for this neck, suggestions?

[PFDarkside]

It’s a fatback Warhead roasted flame maple neck with 6105, Warmoth radius and R4 Floyd rose nut.

I need a body for it, and I’ve love to hear few suggestions from everyone.

My top choice now is a Tele replacement, HH rear route, tummy/forearm/neck contours, recessed Floyd in Goblin Flake. Direct mount covered pickups that match all the hardware (chrome but *maybe* gold)

Obviously a Soloist or Strat would also be a great pick, and I’m really curious what colors you’d choose.

Help me out!

Color: green of some variety, with gold hardware.

We seem to think alike!

Perhaps Candy Apple Red or if you want gold hardware, Pearl White.

Yeah, given how golden brown that neck is, a cooler color would make a big contrast visual pop. Even a bright royal blue would be a marvelous contrast to that neck.

Holo flake VIP with pearloid binding?

Wow. Not that’s something!

That’s a highly specific recommendation! I love it. There’s no room for haggling or anything.

Good God, that's a beautiful neck!

I'm having a hard time with the direct mount and metal covered pickups. I would go with some low-profile matching color rings ...

The Goblin Flake with gold would be awesome. But I think pretty much anything would look good with that neck.

Turquoise flake with chrome could be pretty sweet ...

This is very much appealing to my Obnoxious Guitar Aesthetic gene.

You know, I thought candy turquoise or turquoise flake could look fantastic as well. If there was a candy “lime”, (like goblin flake but candy, it would probably be my choice).
