    What color guard for my trans red ray?

    Time to change the pick guard and I'm not sure what to go with. Anyone have photos of a trans red, or any color red, with different colored pick guards? This is how it looks now...

    Those are the main two I was thinking of but I'd like to see how they look. Especially the pearl.

    Hey Scotty....

    Just noticed your avatar. Do you have any info on where the Bass originally came from. I'm extremely interested in its history. It's a mother Bass

    White perloid would be a nice contrast.

    Not to get off topic, but Evil, you need to change you're technique or you won't be able to play bass in years to come(without extreme pain) due to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The wrist on your right hand is in such an awkward position that it can't be good for you. You should try to keep your wrists as straight as possible with just a slight curve for proper fretting hand technique. Just try'n to help a brutha out...

    Hey Andrew, I need some advise. I only have one finger on my fretting hand and no thumb. What do I do?
