Mint. Even though it's not applicable in this case I really like the original Fender aesthetic.

Will the guitar have a matching headstock? for whatever reason I always think tort looks good on custom colors with plain headstocks and white looks good on custom colors with matching headstocks.

I have a hard time saying no to Spitfire, but my answer is mint. If it was any other tort, it would be a landslide. But my answer is still...

Can you post pics with the headstock showing? Just going with what I can see - faded fiesta red and rosewood fretboard - I say tort.

I’m not a huge fan of red on tort, so I’m saying mint.
The cool thing about fretless is you can hit a note...and then renegotiate.

Both look great, but mint goes better with matching headstocks.

Re: Which guard for Faded Fiesta Danocaster
Tort all the way, unless you switch to the pickup covers to not be darker than the mint guard.
great OSG deals with: ncarey13, skip.
great TGP deals with: drjoel, 12strings, Tim P, angrybandnerd, echobaseone, guitarpkr67, jcampbell331

I prefer this look, actually. Darker covers with a mint guard just looks right to me.takeittothemall wrote: ↑Sun Mar 11, 2018 6:56 pm...unless you switch to the pickup covers to not be darker than the mint guard.

Another vote for mint.
You think you can't, you wish you could, I know you can, I wish you would. Slip inside this house as you pass by.
