which Pickguard too choose

[ghostinabottle]

hey folks,
I´m going to swap the pick ups on my trans white HSH silo in the future. I´m also asking myself too change the pickguard from tortoise to a different colour.
what would you guys suggest. at the moment i´m going for this one http://pickguards.us/images/134_baltic_amber.jpg with blck PU covers and mybe black pots like these http://static.zoovy.com/img/guitarelectronics/W250-H250/C/speed_knob_black.jpg

alternative:http://pickguards.us/images/112_abalone_shell.jpg

WHAT DO YOU THINK? WILL IT MATCH TO THE CREAMY TRANS WHITE.OR WOULD YOU EVEN PREFER CREAMCOLOURED PICKUPCOVERS.

just like too hear your opinion

I like the baltic amber, that a great tortoise replacement as for the knobs black dome would be perfect

baltic amber is also my favourite, and maybe the LP custom style knobs would look too clumsy
but for the price i could buy some in different styles to to look what suits it most. asecond Pickguard just for considering will be too much.
suggestions for the pickup covers?

I would sort of like a white pearloid like on my modified sub:

so long as it doesn't look like it's "trying to match", but not succeeding.

I'm not great at matching same colors, so am safe and went opposite with the pearloid over black.

this one could be a good choice for your Sub http://pickguards.us/images/100_and_117_comparison.jpg
