Hello fashion savvy Baller's!

I have a Stingray 5 HH in Trans Orange with maple neck and natural head stock,
When i bought my bass from the Bass centre in Melbourne Australia! It came with a plain white pickguard, and at the time i wished it had come with a pearloid guard but couldnt sit and wait for one to come in or the ~$120 extra for one :O.

But now after about 11 months i feel i want a change... I want either the

1. Vintage white pearloid Or

2. Gold swirl (note i have black pup covers...)

What do you guys think? also where would i be able to order these from? ive had a look on the net but none seem to be close to matching the vintage white look/colour tones :(.

Thanks for your input, any other pguard combinations are welcomed :)

Between the two, I'd say VWP. If it were me, I'd go with tort or abalone...maybe orange swirl.

Your nearest EBMM dealer should be able to order one.

Wow thanks for the reply's guys,

i have to say i am considering the black pearl now haha, it definitely looks AMAZING, and considering i have a maple board maybe it will bring out the black pearl even more :D...

i think that im gonna have to decided between vintage white pearl and black pearl, any other players out there have the same colour bass with some pics ^^ :D.

Thanks again guys.

Mint/Black/Mint?

I emailed my local dealer (basscentre...) and they told me that the black pearl go for around 150 bucks!!! and takes 6 weeks for my order... i really need a faster and cheaper alternative lol...

anyone got any ideas?
