[SuperTbass]

Tort with the rosewood fingerboard... if the neck were maple I'd be saying the black.

No plastic. WOOD! Wood basses. Don't wreck them with plastic.
IMO

As a matter of fact I currently have a walnut pickguard I hand made on it right now Maybe ill try to get a pic up tonight.

Problem is its hand made lol and I havent the skill to make an excellent one. I am considering getting more walnut or even rosewood and giving it another try.

Stratocaster?... thats my other project

In the pics, the headstock says stratocaster

I think they both look good. Black pearloid would be another option to consider. I'm putting black pearloid on the P I am currently building (pearl white body, Wenge J neck with a Bubinga fingerboard), so I'm kinda biased right now.

real tortoise alway looks best. but some of the cheap new ones are cheap looking. compared to that i would go black.

 

[antoniolopez90]

Well tort is definitively not cheap.. I think the price difference is like 35 vs 90 dollars for tort and black....

Why is it that nobody wants clown barf anymore?

 

[GreaserMatt]

Black; just because I like the look of a black p/g on a white p bass; some of my fav players play that particular model...

 

[testing1two]

Nothing can beat the tortoise...just ask the hare.

 

[cm3ohana]

Definitely tort

on a P-bass, where that little corner of the guard supports the output jack? i'd give it a week before it broke.

you mean that all-out red, white, blue and black swirl that some fender picks have? i've never seen that on a pickguard! (could be interesting, though)

 

[antoniolopez90]

I actually broke that area when I was making the pot hole in my walnut guard. Its a side output jack however so not much issue.

I think everyone loves tort Lol now I need to find someone who won't charge me 100 bucks or more :/

Thanks for all votes!

I hate plain plastic, I prefer tortoise, or black or white pearloid. The plain, solid, plastics, just look plastic to me. Yeah, I know, they're all plastic, but some look more plastic than others.

Black for Rock/Punk
Red Tort for everything else (red's still classy but with an edge)
