Mint Pickguards

[Chistopher]

Always look either way better than white/cream, or way worse. There is no in-between.

Black and mint = fire
Blue and mint = trash

Mint should not exist as a color. There should be ethical principles that forbid its production. To see a mint pickguard is to know despair.

 

[GuitarStv]

Mint/parchment/white thing is inferior to black.

My black Tele with a mint pickguard always gets nice comments when I use it at gigs.

These kind people are trying to pull you back from the abyss

FALSE!

I love my Black/Parchment and Ice Blue/Mint

Also, the only decent mint (other than real deal 60’s aged celluloid) is from Fender. Everyone else’s is just mint ice cream. :earl:

My apologies, by blue I meant dark blue.

That's what I'm saying. I got a mint guard for my black mustang because that's all they had and it was definitely worth it.

Accepted.

Let’s see your Black/Mint!

(now what’s your opinion on Olympic White/Mint?)

My black '62 RI Strat has a mint guard and pickup covers, switch plastic, and it looks like an authentic aged case queen. Great guitar, both looking and playing.

I think Mint/Olympic works nicely. Gives it more depth.

 

[JOLLY]

I'm not a fan.

 

[Mincer]

I don't dig the mint, but I also don't like cream, or any color that is supposed to look old.
