Working on another Tele and am now just waiting for the neck to be delivered (Warmoth mailed it on Monday...so a trek across the Country right now.)
The body is Roasted Swamp Ash and has a super thin nitro finish in Mary Kay White. Pickups are Wilde Bill L45S & L48T.
The roasted body made the Mary Kay not so white as I'm use to Mary Kay White being on guitars...was initially going to go with a Parchment/Offwhite pickguard but now I'm not sure. Won't make the final decision until after the neck gets here (it is a 1 piece Roasted Quartersawn but I don't know how dark/light the roasting is yet.)
Thoughts? No pickguard? Or put a pickguard–what color?
