OK folks, I'm looking for opinions. I've doing a makeover on a Mexican Fender Stratocaster. It's a black body, and it came with a white pickguard and white knobs and pickup covers.
I picked up some black/silver knobs, black pickup covers, and three different colors of pickguards. I did seven quick mockups and am still a bit undecided on which combo to go with. (Sticking with the original look is also a possibility.) Scroll through the pics and vote for your favorite. No guarantee I'll go with the majority voice on this (I'll be polling on other sites, too), but I'm still interested in other peoples' opinions. Also, nothing says I can't switch things around later. It takes all of about 5 minutes to swap out the plastic on one of these guitars.
Here's the original...white pickguard/white knobs and pickup covers:
Here's Mockup #1...black/black:
Here's Mockup #2...black/white:
Here's Mockup #3...purple pearl/black:
Here's Mockup #4...purple pearl/white:
Here's Mockup #5...blue pearl/black:
Here's Mockup #6...blue pearl/white:
And lastly, Mockup #7...white/black:
