Gibson TR cover that looks metal but not tacky?

[Rex_Rocker]

So I cracked my Gibson's truss rod cover accidentally by overtightening it.

I was about to order a blank Gibson one because I always thought the "Tribute" writing kinda cheapened the look.

But I realized I could order something that looks cooler, more metal, or at least more modern. I did replace all of the plastics with black and the hardware as well in my Les Paul. So I thought it would fit.

But I also don't want to order one of those engraved ones that have a skull or flames or something.

So I want something mean, but moderate. Something that looks metal, but still looks like a classy Les Paul.

Suggestions?

This is the guitar right now. I did order a black pickguard bracket, but it was too tall and the pickguard stuck too far out with it. So I just kept the silver one.



Thanks!

Philidelphia Luthiers Supply will put whatever you want on a truss cover and have multiple fonts to pick from

I actually just found this, LOL. Thought it looks hilarious. But not very metal. Or classy. LOL.

A cross is the only thing I can think of, or maybe a star. But really, just plain black metal, like black aluminum, would be fine.

Oh, yeah, plain black metal would be cool too.
