Title: Which Colour?
Post by: beastrn on January 26, 2013, 04:08:05 AM

Hey dudes.

I have this guitar except I am adding black hardware to it:

and am getting an Aftermath Combo. However I'm not too sure on what colour combo I should get. Here were some ideas:

Black Covered with Black or Gold bolts
White Open with Black or Gold Bolts
Burnt Chrome with Black Bolts
Camo? Camo Battleworn? Black Battleworn?

If anyone has the same guitar or similar coloured guitar or any ideas, let me know please :D

This is the only thing currently holding me back from having ordered a set already!

Thanks

Brushed nickel or brushed nickel. Either one.

The default picture of the Abraxas says it all for me.

So the guitar's a nice tasteful sunburst, with black hardware?

I can't even imagine why you're considering burnt chrome, camo or white, or gold bolts.  :?

I would go black open with black polepieces.  Or maybe zebra with black polepieces.  Sorry, I know that's boring.  :P


To be totally honest, it if was me I would keep the chrome hardware and leave the guitar looking the same as it does now.  It looks great.

Welcome to the forum, by the way!  :D

I would go with plain aftermaths or tygyr. If you go with black hardware though, i would choose tygyr again or battleworn black...

Thanks guys.

Yeah those were just some ideas that I was throwing around that look cool individually (imo). I just thought I'd try a change with black hardware. I guess if I don't like it I can go back to Silver anyway.

I decided to pull the trigger and bought the brushed nickel with black bolts as suggested by some of you, otherwise I don't think I'd ever decide. Will post pics when it arrives :D
