All the plastic was looted from an R9 or an R0 I think ... it's the only way I could get all the creams to match. The original plastic on the 2014 'anniversary was a horrible french mustard yellow ... someone had converted all to cheap black aftermarket which made the guitar look really 'blobby' so I bought a complete set of high end Gibson stuff from another Fretboarder. who was converting to black plastics. There's a subtle but nice amount of flame on that top ... I'm not usually a lover of flame, but it sort of makes this guitar stand out a bit.

I deal with this matter by reminding myself that, from twenty feet away, almost nobody can see the difference.
Oh yeah I've got into difficulties with cream before too (with humbuckers and plastics)! Luckily it was just a toggle switch tip which cost around a pound IIRC, but I kept the one I already had as I thought it was a closer match!
