getting bored of red tort...

endsjustifymeans · Post by **endsjustifymeans** » Wed Mar 11, 2009 6:14 pm

After 6 years I'm ready for a new Pickguard color on the franken-sonic...

Red tort has served me well, but everyone and their mama has red tort now. I'm thinking... Green Pearl...

opinions?

ONIONS:

It's gonna be a divider (I see lotsa pearloid hate on the interwebs) but I say go for it. Probably wont cost the earth and it's hardly irreversible!

I say no. A lot. Bad colour combination, and a bad colour full stop. For fear of coming over all offset, I always think gold guards look great on black guitars.

Based solely on how completely polarizing it appears to be... I think I'm going to do it.

It's not like i can't pop the red tort back on if it needs to looks all respectable like.

The jag control plate already has that effect on people... But I like to go that extra mile.

Anything goes with black. That's a little primary for my taste, but worth a shot.

Dude... Fuck all them.

Seriously do this.

When I first opened this thread, the green guard loaded first. I immediately understood the implication and thought to myself:

Seriously do this.

It'll look great. I'm being completely serious, in case anyone thinks this is sarcasm.

as much as i love tort/black combo, i think the green will look ace.

Are you

a) bored
b) procrastinating
or c) doing a bad, bad job of curing the ongoing insomnia of which you suffer?

Reece · Post by **Reece** » Thu Mar 12, 2009 3:06 am

a) and c)

if i'm procrastinating i usually end up doing something so far removed from the task at hand that i end up amazing myself. photshopping a guitar would be pretty tame.

plus it's not insomnia, it's more me being an idiot.
