|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Dec 2012 Location: chi town area | | | Eh. Do you like it? It looks bland. And yes, the pickgaurd and knob plate looks bad together. Just my opinion. If you like it that's all that matters. I think it would look better the guard had a clear coat on it at least.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2013 Location: U.S.A. | | | I vote is cool on the pickguard, ew on the control plate. A one piece wood pickguard/control plate would be cool.
It'd also look better with a rosewood fretboard (in my opinion), but obviously you're not going to buy a whole new neck to satisfy my tastes.

Be better if there was no control plate and was just pg. Also the bass would look better in a natural stain
