another ''which pickguard'' - white j-bass

Hi everyone!
I have a white Fender jazz bass which is kind of old ('99). It's already getting that yellowish vintage colour. Previous owner wanted a completely white bass, so he had put on a white pickguard. Now there is a difference between pickguard and bass colour (see picture). That's why I'm thinking about new one. What colour do you use with whote bass (pictures if possible)?

I would seek out an aged white guard to match the body. There's a million different pickguard vendors, someone has got to make an "aged" one.

I went to Bass pro shop and to my surprise they didn't have a single bass guitar.

I think a red tortoise shell would look good on it

Or soak the white pickguard in warm coffee.
