What pickguard?

Finishing up a build, Fiesta Red P/J with rosewood board.
Torn on the guard, thoughts?

I would think you're going to get lots of votes for tort and black.

In the spirit of not voting for the more common combinations, go with a neon green or bright blue

Edit: if no pickguard is an option I'd probably go with that

No pickguard. I've never really been a fan of them.
