OK it's not even here yet, but I can't stop thinking about it. First of all I think it looks great with the brown tort but am wondering what you think out of the following choices (Vote your conscience, please).

I can't believe you would even think about changing the one that's on it!

I'd leave the tort that's on there.
I would, however, add chrome knobs to match the bridge.

Not only that. but the naughty bits would be dangling, because there is nothing to hold the preamp and knobs in without the pickguard on an SR5.

I voted for the tort thats on it. If you change it, hit a white pearloid.

yep, I did this, looks great.
site note - do MM pickguards last a while before scuff marks become noticable / ugly? I've only had mine 6 months and it already has light marks below the g-string from slapping. no, i'm not talking about my last girlfriend

The pickguard on my newest SR4 is glossy black and pretty scratched up from slapping. I like the old matte black guards better.
