are union jack scratchplates cool?

[Philly Q]

Another consideration - those scratchplates with graphics aren't exactly cheap, so it's money down the drain if you decide you don't like it.

When I were a lad I went through a phase of buying different WD scratchplates for a Strat I built - I had mirrors, "tie-dyes", various plain colours, a clear plate with a cartoon picture under it... cost a fortune.  I ended up with 3-ply white/black/white.  :roll:

The Union Jack is too Indie/britpop indeed. The Rebel is cool but only if it's used in a non discriminating way. So only use it if you're Southern or play Southern music.

I reckon a swastika in a white circle on a red background would look cool  

errrrr. right?...WTF!?

I'm guessing there is some kinda social commentary in that comment, but damned if I can figure it out.

Social commentary!!!!  I was being down right offensive - don't dress mutton up as lamb

It would look cool if you were in a Skrewdriver cover band (and were a Nazi)  :shock:

[Philly Q]

I thought you were talking about the Imperial Japanese Navy flag and equating it with the Nazi flag.

i don't want to seem like a stella drinking english football hooligan,

ironic, as stella is Belgian.

But anyway. I think it looks daft. The union jack isnt exactly that good looking.

Kind of put your style in a corner if you ask me, which i dont like.

Apart from that, it is a very cool graphic, so if it looks good on your guitar, why not. You could however also change the colors maybe, like black and red on a white surface or something like that maybe, would be sweet.....
