Just a quick survey, of the current MIM Standard color combos, which is your favorite? In this hypothetical you can of course change the pickguard color to your liking  . |

This poll is therefore null and void. Carry on people, nothing to see here.

Endorsing Artist: GullanskyLab pickups | | Join Date: Sep 2009 Location: Bologna, Italy, Europe | | | If I had lots of money, lots of room at home, lots of chances to play a P (basically I'm a J guy), I think I'd get a complete set to match my wardrobe and my different moods:
black/black rw, white/white m, black/tort rw (or black/abalone), and CAr/white rw.
Anyone for sending me some Christmas present?
