Lord-of-the-strings Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 This friday I'm going to be ordering new pickups (DiMarzio Evolutions) from my local music store, now I have a problem. I have a burnt stained light brown guitar, some of you might remember my finished pictures, anyhow, I don't know what colour pups I should get :/ would cream be good? or should I just stick with black, note that I will probably end up putting a black pickguard on it. The thing with the cream is that brown is a neutral colour, as with cream, and too many neutral colours together looks weird. So if you were to get an actual colour, what colour would you guys pick?

GregP Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 If the colour is still bazzacly like in your thread, I say go with Black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord-of-the-strings Posted December 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Well, it's a little darker now, so I think I'm gonna go with cream. Thanks for the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biliousfrog Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 Bored at work so I made a mockup of what it might look like....personally I think that cream looks weird but not as bad as I expected. Hope you don't mind Lord-of-the-strings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sambo Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 I'll stick my head out. I like the cream... Its a bit.... Different.... S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spazzyone Posted December 14, 2006 Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 looking at the mockup id say cream as it breaks the duldrum of all black more astheticly pleasing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord-of-the-strings Posted December 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Well... looks like I'm going with black, seeing as it was all they had in at the moment and I'd have to wait till after christmas to order. Worse case scenario: I don't like the black, and I buy some bobbins toppers to make 'em cream. Thanks for all the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biliousfrog Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 LOL....so when everyone said black, you wanted cream...now they say cream, you're going for black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanb Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 You could always do zebra black/cream ... but I vote for black too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
