Color scheme help!

[nuntius]

Everything is sorted but the damn colour...

Its gonna be a h/s/h strat mahogany body flame maple top

take into account the knobs are the knurled metal types (i find them easier to get hold of while im sweating my a$$ off in a gig)

pup colour can be suggested too

and post pics of the colour!

thanks guys

Re: Color scheme help!

If the top is gonna be trans, why not go for a nice cherry burst? Or a creamy, iced tea colour? Creme pups, of course, or zebra ...

Totally NOT my style, but I think it looks great ... for other guitarists, not me!

Re: Color scheme help!

well the pups i was gonna go zebra so the bridge one nearest the bridge is black, the neck coil nearest teh neck is black, and the single is black

so the H/S/H would be all zebra'd

Either that white pups

I'm liking a burst idea, i was thinking to do a weird burst taht nobody has

like blue->purple

but i have no way of seeing what it looks like

Re: Color scheme help!

Why not amber dye the top with a trans red back and separate the two with a pearloid binding? Or do a cherry burst with the trans red mahogany.

Re: Color scheme help!

I dig that tele, but it should be a little darker!

 

[nuntius]

Re: Color scheme help!

yeah the original idea was that tele, with a mid single coil and strat control layout

but i changed back to strats because i love the shape more

Uuuuuuh, the same colour as normal tea?

Sort of a light brown-ish colour; gibson do that finish, take a look at their website

Re: Color scheme help!

I'm too kind:

I'd prefer a blue-burst...

 

[nuntius]

Re: Color scheme help!

Thanks Jonnylane

Hmm i think i'm leaning towards a darker colour so i can put white/zebra pups on it
