which pickguard for my bongo???

Tort would look smokin' and I've yet to see a Black Bongo with tort.

 

either would look nice but I would put the black pearl on it.

 

I say black pearl..............but hes right tort would be PAMP!

 

out of those two, i'd go with black pearl

but i also love mirror pickguards on black basses

 

Of those two, black pearl. First choice would be red tort.

 

White! You could call it Shamu!

 

While mine is Sapphire Black, it might give you a couple of ideas:





And, my personal favorite:





www.pickguards.us has quite a few unique pickguard materials, so I wouldn't limit yourself to the standard stuff.

For example, here's my white fretless with an antique acrylic gold:





Yes, I know it looks like a hard boiled egg.

 

The tort is very cool! Of your two choices, I'd probably get a black pearl.

 

For me it would be the white pearl.

 

I'd go with EB MusicMan's Black Ice.

 

tort.

 

Go with the one that protects your Bongo from scratches better. (Psssst - Since they both do that equally well, pick the one you think looks better.)

 

i actually am looking for pickguards for my black stingray, so i know your connundrum. if you've got it down to 2 (which is doing better than me), why not buy both? they're easy to change, not super expensive, and you could change them bassed on your mood (or between songs if you want to mess with the audience )
