just curious if anyone with a LP Modern (or other) with the Faded Pelham Blue finish did cream plastics on their les paul.. If so, anyone has pics to share?

I saw Rick Beato's (youtuber) les paul std in regular pelham blue in cream and i thought it looked really nice.
But, my LP has the faded version of that color, so not sure mine would look as nice.

Here is the guitar I'm talking about

Cream plastics class up a guitar IMO. But black can a guitar look “meaner” in a black wheels, sports car kinda way, especially with uncovered pickups.

I usually like cream trim the best, but I think yours looks great with the black too so it’s a toss up for me.

The good news is you really can’t miss with either.

For me, cream looks vintage. Black looks more modern and aggressive.

I have a Pelham Blue LP with P90’s. Black covers and plastics. 100% stock with no plans to change it.

The cream would be better, EXCEPT the binding is very white. Might look a little off, but could be great.

Ah man, that blue with black, awesome.
Good news is you can’t make a bad decision!
