Finally got the guard!!

Hey everyone. I finally got the guard on my P!! Love it! What do you guys think? I thought the gold screws wouldn't look to well on the bass but I think they look pretty good. Plus with the black and one gold tuner the screws look ok

I like the look of gold on black.
Could we get a better view of the headstock? I happen to have this thing for tuners which don't match.

I thought I had posted up the tuners. My fault. The guy who I got it from had gotten three black tuners and screw and then a one gold tuner. I thought I would hate it with the gold tuner there on the D but turns out I like it. Tough to get a good pic though.

looks good, but to expand on the mis-matched tuners idea,
how about black tuners/bushings with gold string posts? would be too hard considering the tuners can be disassembled/assembled pretty easily.


edit - oh, and a black bridge with gold saddles would look pretty cool as well.

That bass should be named Dr. Teeth!

Looks cool brother!

Now you need a black bridge with one gold saddle, and swap that abalone knob out for a gold one.

Haha Dr. Teeth is a good one. But I think I might name it Sweet Tooth. Thanks for all the compliments guys. I think a black bridge will be next.
