Finished Aging my trad -updated

All,
I posted "Finished Aging my 2011 Trad plus last week and got some great ideas from the group. I have knob indicators on order and just installed a set of gold/gold reflector knobs. Aside from the cool look, they actually function simillarly to the speed knobs as they have a good bit of height to them.

So, pick guard or not? Can't decide.

thanks for all the great suggestions last week.

Well, I'd say a les paul has a pick guard on but if like it without then just leave it naked

I always find LPs to look naked without the pickguard. But like Rodolphe said, it's your call! If you like it naked, don't put it on!

that being said, the most interesting area of your burst is where the eyes is on the upside part of the table, so the pickguard doesn't hide it, and i'd say Guard on!
