saturn Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I know. This is a pretty petty thing to worry about. But when I first posted this Kokcaster guitar more than a year ago, Pippy suggested that it might look good with a creme pickup ring. Well I just got around to trying it. What do you guys like?

surfpup Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I like the cream better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L8_4thesh0w Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I'm with pip and pup. The creme kind of blends it all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshall Paul Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Yup, cream looks the goods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 Thanks. The only problem with the creme one is that it sits a little lower than the black. So I have to really crank the p/u thru the ring to get it close enough to the strings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackdeuce Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 Guess I'm the oddball. I like the black. Both look good, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L5Larry Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 It's the pickup that's the wrong color! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveinspain Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 It's the pickup that's the wrong color! I agree, maybe a chrome cover would do the trick... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 ...when I first posted this Kokcaster guitar more than a year ago, Pippy suggested that it might look good with a creme pickup ring. Well I just got around to trying it. ... No point in rushing headlong into these things, saturn.......glad you got around to trying it out. I doubt that I need to say which one I find more appealing. I agree, maybe a chrome cover would do the trick... Funny that you should mention that, Dave (and Larry, too - sort-of). Out of interest I searched for the original post and here is what I said back then; ...if it were mine I'd probably consider swapping the 'bucker's surround for a white one and popping a chrome cover on the top... I still think it's a lovely looking guitar either way. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saturn Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 Jeez. It took me almost 2 years to get around to trying a new plastic ring. How long do you think it'll be before I try a chrome cover? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stein Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 I think the creme for the fact it makes the pup look smaller, which for some reason makes the proportions seem better. However, I would be considering white instead of creme, because that is the basic color of the other "plastic". Doubtful you would be able to find a MOP pup ring. But, if you could.... I once had an Ibanez with that same color of pick gaurd, the white mother of toilet seat, and it had white humbuckers. It looked real good that way. Bummer about that is, white pups are more rare. More limiting as to what a guy could put in if that is the chosen color. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
