Parchment pickguard was the right call. I put one on my surf green Jazzmaster, and it looks so good!
Thanks!

Looks great :)

Here's it's Jazzmaster sister :

I had parchment on it before but didn't like it - I just noticed now that you have white pickup covers which look really good with parchment... I had creme covers and a parchment pickguard and it looked kinda boring.

And here's its older Jaguar Bass brother:

Great looking guitar you made, and good call on the parchment guard and American trem. Tortoise just doesn't seem right on custom color blues. With parchment it gets that two-tone 50s car vibe, and that American trem is a clear winner over the VM or Classic Vibe trem.
I have a sonic blue VM Jazzmaster and considered upgrading the parts, but after getting my light and resonant roadworn 60s Jazzmaster I realized
I would be stuck with a heavy and dead sounding basswood body. I can imagine yours was way more worth upgrading with the poplar body.

edit; i just saw you upgraded your trem and bridge to something more exclusive
