yorks5stringer 1,653 Posted November 21 I've been busy with some scratchplate material and the Router...which do you prefer and why? Black -Stock Vintage White Tort? Or there is another colour pattern you think would be best? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EddHytheTown 19 Posted November 21 Black for me, looks great with the burst edges and the neck colour. To be fair all three look very decent though! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OliverBlackman 158 Posted November 21 Can it be without a scratch plate or is there routing underneath? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PaulThePlug 267 Posted November 21 (edited) Black, White is too stark and i dont do tort... might be something to do with being colour blind. tort just looks messy to me. Got any clear, or light tint?... 'cos ya got the scratch plate holes... keeps the lines and the vibe... and ya get 30% more wood!

AndyTravis 5,968 Posted November 21 All three look ace. I debated off white/cream when I had the bass - the dots are like an aged white. but the bass is lush so it’s all good. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Merton 1,328 Posted November 22 My order of preference is black / tort / white. Can we have a naked picture too? (Of the Bass, sans scratch plate...... you know what I mean 😳) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
