Question Should I change the pickgaurd or not?

[Afterglow4u]

So this baby is brand new to me, and my question is though it already looks great, I know that either a black pearl or white pearl pickgaurd would really make it pop. Should i just leave it stock, or accessorize? Just curious what ya'll think?

White pearl would look awesome.

Thanks everyone, I'm going to order the white pearl (still think the black pearl would look cool with the rosewood fingerboard though, but at the end of the day it's how the bass sounds not what it looks like, right?).

John,
Sweet looking bass, the shirt suggests you may be cheating on MM with a 57' P bass, true?

I have a black pearl PG hanging around [SR4HH] that I
didn't install after buying it cuz it proved to be a rather
blue-black rather than a neutral true black .... and the
bluishness looked really weird on my warm toned bass
[sunburst, currently with shell PG].

So I'm wondering/doubting that black pearl should be
on a red bass, especially an SR5 with that huge area
given over to the PG.

@Golem good point.
Here is one in moonstone (found somewhere in this forum posted by a T. Alan) but you get the idea.. I'm going with the white pearl though, I think it looks better now that I've had some time to think it over.

Another vote for white pearl.

Plus the fact that your bass has a white PUP cover makes that white pearl really the right choice. Oh and I would never cheat with a '57 P bass
