So my (totally unsolicited) vote is “no pickup rings” :-)

Your life will improve when you realise it’s better to be alone than chase people who do not really care about you. Saying YES to happiness means learning to say NO to things and people that stress you out.

I'm currently considering the best way to do it. I think I used a rub on decal on the last firebird I built, and going that way would give a wide range of colour options.
I am moving away from the idea of a silver painted perspex gretsch style plate. If I was doing that I would likely do a vinyl sticker underneath the guard
I think the options I like are a black guard with white logo or white guard with red logo

Originally I was thinking the other way, match the plate to the rings.
I could easily match the rings to the plate if I still did the Gretsch style Perspex plate - they can all be painted any colour on the back

Or clear, which would actually be sprayed on the back. I am actually starting to consider something like gold in proper gretcsh fashion

With just the close up I’m thinking the white.

i think it looks pretty smart with the rings (and likely a matching truss rod cover)
a but boring without the rings
whereas the blackplate looks better without the rings
