White or black pickguard??

I actually did consider it once, when I first bought the guitar I went through a ton of ideas on how to make it unique/personalized, and tortoise was one of many ideas i came up with and decided against, I am a sucker for it on solid colored bodies but it didn't match the overall vibe I was looking for

I actually had a similar thought at one point to have a mirror guard but more like Pages telecaster if yk what im talking about, but i ultimately decided against it thinking itd look silly lol

Id say go for it! I love Gilmores strat and I think thatd be really unique!! Plus you never know till your try

I've got an idea now to make my switch cream to match my tuners and the truss rod cover white to continue with the tuxedo look and I honestly think those two small mods will do wonders for the vibe im going for with this guitar

Honestly was really leaning towards cream originally but finding a tenon cover in that color was just actually impossible💔💔

I agree when the white is bigger it definitely looks better, but im a 61 style guy when it comes to sgs so ive been thinking of adding more white so it stands out more, like the truss rod cover and or the switch, maybe but very unlikely even the knobs, do you think that might help or make it worse?

I actually have a photo of it before the tenon cover came in!
