I had an extra pickguard laying around so I put it on my jazz bass along with a pic. Which one looks better to you? Tort pg and knobs or red pg with blck knobs...please look at pics and give me your opinion. http://s80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/gorygoblins/
With the one set of pics in the case, and one out of the case, I can't tell the difference against the plush velvety stuff
I've never liked those red tort guards. I don't know what they are trying to look like so they look fake to me.
I like Tort because it reminds me of bygone days. I think they look best on a cream bass but the brighter red looks better to me on the white one you have. What are you gonna do with the white cast off? Donations being taken for all cast off pickguards. I'm getting into making templates for custom wood, brass, etcetera.
I find it funny that no matter what color the bass is, most people on TB will ALWAYS say tort. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but cmon people, DIVERSIFY!!!
I think the red one suits the decal more, but if it was my call, I'd get a black p/g. They both look fine, but considering the decal, I'd have to go with the red.
haha ive noticed that also, but i gotta say i love that white/tort look. In most other cases i would vote black though.
The pictures are both out of focus and the lighting is not consistent. Let's see some in-focus pix taken under good light.
