I've decided on black hardware, and a pau ferro fretboard with black trapezoid fret marker inlays. If you were limited to these colors, which would you go with - fire engine red, royal blue, candy yellow, olympic white, or jet black?
Just for the record, the pau ferro to be used for the fretboard is not as dark as something like rosewood. Here is an example of black against pau ferro:
Nice looking Ibanez. You're probably right about the color. My color for the blue might be closer to a sapphire blue... I mixed my own colors in Photoshop because the final color will be custom mixed.
Dude, Yellow!! Think of it this way-- white and black and yellow and black are strong color combos- AND you've already got a white and black motif base covered with that other guitar!
