White Pickup Covers? Anyone?

Let's see em' if you've got em'!

I personally have a thing for a black/rosewood/tort jazz with cream pickups.

I put a pearloid cream pickguard on a 5 string Lakland JO - TSB with a maple fingerboard, with binding and, between white and cream, pearloid blocks. Could not find cream 5 string covers to save my life. So like others, went with the Krylon Fusion (for plastic) Buttercream spray paint. Looks perfect - and natural! Left the stock covers on . . . carefully masking and inserting them into a piece of cardboard cutout . . . solved the problem. Yes, I un-soldered and re-soldered wires! No change in sound or additional hum!
