White ( Olympic / appliance / whatever ), tortoise ( preferably more red than orange-y ) pickguard.... | I voted white because I picked white for YOU.
The question was worded which one would I pick if I had the choice of those two. I wouldn't pick either of those colors...but I want YOU to have white.
Mostly cuz I don't want you to have a bass that looks the same as mine!

I never felt red and tort go well - too much clashing going on.
However, if I was allowed to add sonic blue ...

Here's my 2 cents for Oly White:
Rosewood board = Tort guard
Maple board = Gold Anno guard
Good luck!  |
