I can scrounge around my house for a big ol' pot of some sort. I'm not too worried about that. I'm planning on doing a yellowish orange color on a white pickguard (luckily I already have one to use). I'm thinking I'll buy a darker orange to mix with the lighter one to compensate for the white undern...

Cheers,
