    Definitely looks like a blue pickguard to me.

    cheers guys i wasn't sure if i was going to go red or blue pickguard nah on the gold gear it's going to be my workhorse strat the colour is actually bright white with a couple of lite coats of pearl over it and 4 double header coats of clear can't really see it in a picture



    the neck was a pain to get right and stopping build up around the frets finally got it, with 3 double header coats of clear and 1500 soap & water polish with 3m(the best) buffing compound by hand neck does have a lovely grain in it

    cheers guys
