ok, im having a really hard time figuring out which pickguard i should order for my bongo. It is currently between the black pearl and white pearl. The bongo is all black. Any other suggestions?
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.
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 )
