Fiore - new finish option

[Aahzz]

I like the blue. In general, I find the Fiore just a touch plain looking. If I was looking for a guitar with those pickup options I'd give it a whirl, but on something like that I prefer a pickguard for the visual appeal - it just adds a little something for the eye.

Stickers, of course!

You make an excellent point!

I don't disagree - but plain looking in a good way, like some of the Charvels, etc. from the 80s.

Back when men were men.

I agree that that is exactly what they remind me of - but I hate the look of those, so it's not a good thing from my side.

Hmm...thinking through it, I actually strongly prefer most guitars with a pickguard - Les Pauls look naked without them, no matter how nice the top. Strats, Teles, Firebirds, Explorers, Vs...really, it's the PRS classic body shape with the violin carve is the one I can think of off hand that doesn't need the guard to look right. OK, MAINLY the body shape, because I'm OK with S2 and SE Customs without the guard. Maybe a TV Yellow Les Paul Jr. Maybe.

I wouldn't mind seeing Fiore with "Cabronita" style pickguard but like I said earlier Fiore is perfect enough for me. I like plain axes. I used to play LA Custom Shop 7 string Ibanez with one pickup and no fretboard markers. That was plain looking

Ooh, a Cabronita style guard would look EXCELLENT on a Fiore...

There's a guy making pickguards here in UK. Your design. You can order one with self adhesive tape and wack it on. I bet you can get some in The States too

I’ll look for something like that if I should end up with a Fiore

Its not a bad idea and I could go with it too. That blue finish and 4 ply tortoiseshell cabronita style pickguard...

I love the sounds of the Fiore, I love the shade of blue. I actually have too many guitars. Sorry, Joseph, there’s no room at the inn.

Not sure what you meant to say here, but only this gibberish came through. Maybe your machine got infected with malware or a virus. Probably worth running a scan.

Momentary insanity, I played a guitar that wasn’t blue. I still have 1/10 of 11 top’s collection.
