    I wasn't of fan of the color of my MIM P-Bass until I put on a slick black PG...:bassist:

    My midnight wine jazz has a red tortoise PG on and it looks sexy.

    The picture is about 3 years old, but that's the most recent one I can find. I think it looks good. :bassist:

    ... i think you're on to something there. i've never seen midnight wine with red tortoise before, i kinda like it.

    then again, the black pg looks awesome on anything, if you ask me.
     
  5. Midnight Wine is such a cool color................

    I'd be tempted to try to find a Midnight Wine pickguard.Or clear..................

    i've never seen a MW pickguard but that'd be awesome if they're out there
     
  7. Could maybe custom order? 2 ply MW/white would be boobies!:bassist:

    mine used to have a white PG on it, but i prefer the black
     
  9. this lovely bass is in the hands of TBer Basstones now
    but it makes a case for pearl white

    at one point it had the obligatory 3 ply gloss black = sexy
    at another time it had a red tort guard = also sexy
    but the pearl to me looks classy
     
  10. ever try black pickguard screws?
    they are cheap and make a big impact on the overall look
    almost like the pickguard is "glued" on from a distance:

    Black screws, black knobs and no-hole pickup covers really spruce up a bass IMO.

    But I think midnight wine P Basses w/black guard are one of the great color combos...

    WOW that looks really nice
    but now you don't have a tone or volume knob!
    still looks great though, especially with the pick-up covers:bassist:
