I'm having a tough time deciding on a pickguard for the Bongo 5 HS that I want to order when I get deposit money together. My catalog isn't really helping my decision as I can't really place the pickguard colors on the color.

So, could I see some Sapphire Black Bongos with shell, black pearloid, abalone, python, and moonstone pickguards? One pic will do for each, and it doesn't necessarily need to be a Bongo.

Thanks so much for your help ahead of time!

i got it with moonstone and got bored of that pretty quickly. it looked amazing in pics but in person we didnt get along. Then I put a tort guard on and HATED it... Then i called CS and Aziah suggested white ice and now im happy.

I took the python guard off my Bongo and laid it on my Saph black Sterling and that looked pretty f'in cool. hopefully someone's got a pic - if not i can snap one when i get home

Sweet!! Glad you like the white ice, I think it's an underrated pickguard that people tend to forget about
:D

HEY! No fair throwing my gut out there.:eek:

JIM

The way guys view these photos is telling. For example:

- I see the basses, check them out, color, pickguard, maintenance, strings....

-I see the nice looking girl playing the Bongo, note the bass, then check out the girl thoroughly.....

-I see Jim and think, "Hey, there's Jim."

Fear not, James. We never look below the bass.
