Which plastics to put on my Strat?
I like my Strat but I want the plastics to be different colours (I mean knobs, pickups, etc). Which nice variations do you know of? I don't want to copy anyone.

My guitar is triburst (or three-tone sunburst).

Sounds awesome. I bet that a pink pickguard, green pickups, and yellow knobs would look beautiful, especially on a tri-burst.

Beautiful. No pickguard, pink, yellow, and green pickups, black, purple, and rainbow knobs, and blue switch tips, not to mention a red killswitch on the lower side of the body and a gold tune-o-matic bridge.

My old Strat had white neck and bridge pickups, a black middle pickup, and black knobs and selector switch. I liked the way it looked.
