Which pickguard should my guitar have?
Being as indecisive as I am, I'm struggling to decide which pickguard I should have on my guitar. I'd love to hear your opinions and comments regarding this. Feel free to also comment on any other pickguard aside from the ones shown here.

I prefer gold anodized on sunburst. Tort would be second.

I also think gold looks great. Mint second for me.

Both of these. Gold is my first choice on most JM finishes.adamrobertt wrote: ↑Fri May 14, 2021 6:40 pmI prefer gold anodized on sunburst. Tort would be second.

Been a red tort fan for years but nowadays I think that the right shade of mint (like the first pic) is the most elegant thing available. Gold anodized on sunburst is cool to, the one with a more copper-ish hue.

All of them
They all look good, I’d definitely throw gold in the mix too. You don’t have to stick with the same guard forever, I have a couple of spare guards and swap them round whenever I fancy a change.

I hate light colored guards on sunburst, and I think black works best on over-the-top target bursts. My choice would be tort.

Anodized gold would be my first choice on a sunburst. Cream would look nice as well. Black is a decent choice, too.adamrobertt wrote: ↑Fri May 14, 2021 6:40 pmI prefer gold anodized on sunburst. Tort would be second.
