The yellow goes well with the tortoise shell. I agree that gold might be a bit much. Chrome, or maybe black hardware?Originally posted by DreXNearly everyone still in this thread should have me on ignore by now.

But with the tremolo it probably isn't the end of the world if you don't get it right the first time. I'm sitting here today putting a strat together for a friend. The holes for the new trem don't line up with the holes from the one that I took off. I just glued some toothpicks into the old holes, and am waiting for it to dry before I cut them off and sand them down flush. It should be almost undetectable when I'm done, but it will all be underneath the tremolo plate anyway. I'm only even bothering to fill them because the new holes will be drilled very close to where the old ones were.
Watching glue dry on a stormy day. What fun!
Yeah, the black hardware looks like the way to go, assuming that it looks as good on the tortoise...Originally posted by DreXNearly everyone still in this thread should have me on ignore by now.

I just took a screenshot, then pasted it into Photoshop, but Paint would have done just as well for this. Then uploaded to my 'junk' Flickr account.Warmoth Group @ Flickr : SDUGF group @ SoundCloud : Basic Guitar Setup
