Neilybob's Reclied Jazzmaster Partscaster Build. Which pickup covers?

Neilybob

Fender AVRI tremolo ordered from my local guitar shop as it's good to shop local and I've had some bargains from the internet with this build. 

Next is where do I buy matching cream plastics from? I'm talking pickup covers, witch hat knobs to fit CTS pots, switch tip and wang bar tip that all match on colour?

I have never once thought about trying to match all those colours…

Coming from Strats I hadn't considered that?

Honesty you can get away with a lot if you have a contrasting guard

Ai is fun for designing a build 

Black is looking cool!

Or should I got for black witch hat knobs instead?

Witch hats are for losers. Would look good as above - but without rust.

To be fair I've ordered a brand new Fender AVRI Tremolo so it will be nice and shiny

Just scored a used but not abused Fender American Vintage Jazzmaster Trem from this very parish which is good as still no response to my enquiry email (sent on Tuesday last week) from my local music shop

Black scratchplate and black knobs ordered from EarlPilanz on evilbay.

I was thinking of going down the big knob route and I found the perfect ones on Reverb. Grabbed them yesterday but then awoke to a refund as the seller has already sold them on a different platform FFS. 

Look how cool they would have looked!

FWIW that build would be awesome with some heavy-knurled Tele knobs

They could work thanks.  Will do some research.

I heartily recommend the Callaham ones. They’re expensive but they’ll change your life  (and outlast your kids!)

Big step forward as the Fender AVRI trem arrived from @adam_farmer today.
