Are Stingray pickguards symetrical?

[bbl]

In other words, do I need to buy a "lefty" one? Thanks.

Welcome to the forum BBL!

Yes you will need to order a lefty pickguard, the pickup screws (2 and 1) for sure make it necessary.

Make yourself at home and have fun here!

Or you could just turn a righty upside down.

 

[adouglas]

Or inside out.....

Thanks, Chuck! I've been around, and have seen you around, too. Maybe more of you than I would want. It's great to have someone like yourself representing us lefties!

Anyway, here are my babies:

Those are some dang nice babies!

I've bumped in to you here and there, I just couldn't remember if I welcomed you are not.

That transparent green is awesome.

 

[Dr Stankface]

Give me your trans green Sterling.


No really. Give it to me.

Stanky I didn't know you were a lefty, welcome to the Kingdom!

I can learn to be a lefty for that beauty!

Thanks. Yeah, she gets a lot of attention. I'm still trying to tame her.

I'm also looking for any pickguard color recommendations for the white Stingray. (fyi, I just received it last night, my first 'Ray, and it's awesome!)

I don't like the white pg. I'm mulling over tortoiseshell, or black. I'm leaning towards black, because of the black/white contrast, the black fret markers, and the white-painted headstock with black lettering.

Everybody expects me to say tort, but in this case I'd also suggest white pearloid or cream.

Pickguard for the white SR?

Abalone.

For once, and this may well be the only time EVER, I agree with Stanky

Abalone all the way!

Thanks for the recos!

Is abalone the same as white pearloid?
