Mint looks pretty classy, like a black suit and tie with a white...I mean, mint shirt.

i favor the black pickguard, just a great look IMO.

Black with the Fender bridge. But really any color pickguard that you like works, perhaps switch it up sometimes, see how the variation settles in for you.
Not long ago I swapped a black & maple PJ from the gold pickguard to black, I like it better with black, as it turns out.

You never can go wrong with 3 ply Black, especially it it is a maple neck.
For those that obsess over mint, parchment, or white: they all look the same under stage lights.
That said, my vote here is black.
