Trying to decide which pickguard/p90 colour config for my latest tele partscaster.
Im torn between these choices…pearloid white,black guard , black or creme soapbars...
What do you guys think?

Looks cool with the black edges like that.

Okay, that looks really nice. I love the beveled black edges.
