when in doubt go with white perloid

 

[Alfang]

Or Black, that goes with any finnish

 

[Wana_make_a_guitar]

A clear one, a Gold one or an Aluminum one.

Just looking at the body, I'd say a cream pickguard.  What color are the pickups going to be?  That sways a decison too.

Here's from a mostly similar looking strat in the showcase:

and a link to the showcase body: http://www.warmoth.com/Showcase/ShowcaseItem.aspx?i=ps4009&Body=2&Path=Body

 

[Velcro]

I think that beigey brown colour that some duo sonics have would be a good colour.

 

[Super Turbo Deluxe Custom]

I recant.  I like the black pickguard.

 

[dmraco]

cream

It might look stupid, but I wonder what a tortoise shell pickguard would look on it?

 

[rapfohl09]

cream

+1, I think it would great with cream.

 

[jalane]

Cream looks good.

If you're open to going outside of Warmoth, I think a gold anodized pickguard would be awesome.

 

[crash]

I would go with a maple wood pickguard.

 

[JamesL]

Black, without a doubt, if you pick anything else...... You're a communist.

 

[Super Turbo Deluxe Custom]

lol. Wouldn't that be a red pickguard? 

Black PG with cream controls and pickup covers.

 

[JamesL]

Touche'.

 

[achartra]

go with the pearloid solid, on warmoth, that would keep the guitars warm look and also add a little vintage feel.

 

[nexrex]

I would go with B/W/B. Anything else to me just just doesn't look aesthetically correct. Clear Pickup Cover with black strat knobs as well

 

[Cagey]

I'm thinking purple metal flake, so Agwan will stop crying. But, if you want something that looks good, you'll probably want something that's contrasty/complementary, like a cream or vintage pearl. With purple metal flakes. And fuel injection. And an enchilada with the pickle sauce rubbed up and down a doggy's... never mind.
