I wanted my bass to look a bit more personal, so I decided to cover the pickguard with a nice piece of wallpaper. Some of you might remember some of the other mods on this bass too. :) If you don't, guess what it is! It's not a "Gösser" (austrian beer label). :D I'm gonna remove the little lady sticker, since it no longer suits the overall look.

That is a good idea. Plenty of options.

My son had an old Strat upon which he covered the p/g with faded blue denim. He did a real good job on it, but I hated it because it clashed with the color of the guitar. (It was an old brown Strat kind of like Bonnie Raitt's "Brownie" guitar.) It would have looked real good on a blue or white guitar.
