vote for a pickguard

[Psycho Ward]

Tort, it's the new abalone.

 

[KennethB]

On a natural bass I prefer a black pickguard.

 

[EBMM7181]

Tort, or Clear!

 

[adouglas]

I'd say blort. Or tack. Not white. Ick.

 

[Ole Man Blues]

BOING!

Tort is still the clear favorite........

 

[beej]

Yo Steve! Good to see ya here. That bass sounds mighty familiar

I like it just the way it is, personally, but second choice would be tort.

 

[58super]

Add my vote for black.

 

[ekb16b]

black

 

[Rod Trussbroken]

Have both...Tort and Matte Black...just awap them around every few months

 

[timmy5strings]

I'm a fan of the Tort as well. It makes it look like you smashed a turtle thru the strings
Note: No turtles or tortoises were hurt in the making of this thread

 

[Goofball Jones]

The answer is always Tort. When in doubt, vote Tort...

 

[StevieStingray]

Well, I think I got enough feedback... thanks to all who voted!

After 33 votes, the results are:
1) Tort [55%]
2) Black [30%]
3) Other [9%]
4) White [6%]

It turns out the bass currently has a white pickguard. I didn't want to skew the voting by stating that up front.

Personally, I was thinking of changing it from white to tort - sorry beej

This vote cinches it - I'm going to order a tort pickguard tomorrow

Thanks again y'all!

So I've recently acquired a beautiful Stingray from a senior member of this fine, fine forum.

It's a natural finish, but I'm thinking of changing the pickguard. Pictured are 1 of the 3 options I'm considering.

What do you think?

Black
White
Tort
Other

heyya aStevie Stingray, sorry , I've got no pics to prove my point but I can testify that my latest sR5H Piezo was special ordered Natural/ and rosewood with Abalone p/g and is totallystunning... at firstthe lads at the shop thought I was crazy , until the bass arrived from SLO and they saw it in real life; I'm hooked on it and alls I can say is " if you feel like taking a real zippity Doo Dah chance, you'lll see what I mean when you try it .. from a fashion point of view, there is a verygolden coloured flec in the abalone p/g that really works with the blondie colour of a Natural SRash bodyand the dark abalone colours contrast very nicely...

the word "ELEGANT" comes to mind ... as does " STYLE"or "MODERNE"

/PL

ps CAUTION If you're up for the ZIPPITY DOO DAH chanceof a lifetime, Wimmin find it irrsistably attractiveeven if you can''''''t play bass worth a hoot

 

[Psycho Ward]

Well I vote for tort, but not for the look, tort sounds better.

 

[EBMM7181]

[bovinehost]

The answer is always Tort. When in doubt, vote Tort...

But then there was never any doubt on a natural finish, was there?

 

[Alvabass]
