its daphne blue (baby blue). it has a white pearl pickgaurd now but its sort of aged so its a little darker which i like. i'm thinking one of these

1. white pearl
2. black pearl
3. black solid

will probably do all black pickup covers

Strats look great in daphne blue with a white or white pearl pickguard. I suggest white covers. Looks so classy.

You could do it a bit understated but still hot rod, e.g., parchment white single coils and brushed nickel on the P-90, with a tortoiseshell or similar pickguard.

I miss my A-bomb sometimes ... riffs that sounded good on it don't sound so good on the Cold Sweat, and on the other hand riffs that always sounded wrong on it sound much better on the Cold Sweat.  I will keep it and put it in another guitar one day.  It definitely has its place.  I would never pair it with a Cold Sweat neck again though.  Definitely a matching Nailbomb neck if I were to pay for a BKP neck to go with it again, otherwise use a single pickup guitar or leave the stock neck pickup in there, as I rarely use the neck pickup with the style of music (hardcore) that sounds great with the A-bomb.  it definitely brings the 'aggro'

FINALLY have the funds to make this purchase. i'm pumped! sold my buddy my telecaster so i can go ahead with this one.

 but the colors are still what i'm unsure about. hmmm

i definitely want the white pearl pickguard. but im thinking maybe parchment white trilogy suites and maybe a black stockholm. hmm

yeah. i was going to do the white pearl with all black pickups and black knobs but having the blue guitar, chrome hardware  and black knobs would look a little weird. i definitely think the parchment white is the way to go but i just have to decide on that P90.

A lot of Suhrs HSS come with white or parchment singlecoilcovers and an open pole black humbucker. Especially in your colour it will look a little more hotrodded then everything white or parchment.

yeah. its too bad you cant get p90s open coiled. i can't really imagine what it would look like haha. but i think the parchment, or maybe even cream(which i originally mixed up with the parchment) + a black stockholm is going to be my best bet.

If you were using a real P-90 instead of a HSP-90 you could go for the cream plastic cover matching with the single coils, but then you would need a whole new pickguard, routing, and mounts installed.

Have you considered black cover with nickel screws to match black single coils?
