Do grow up soon son because you're attitude is not very nice 

It's a working farm where pictures get taken near my workshop, I choose to work here over some industrial concrete faceless building.

This is the correct answer alternate every few months. I have black, cream and white guards for my sonic blue tele to switch between. 

Sonic blue you say?

Every time I see this, I am amazed/fascinated by what on earth is stopping the sonic blue from toppling backwards !

The answer is staring us in the face. It's one of each.

The most famous whiteguard 56 that I can think of is Craig Ross's number one.

Black. Always.

Tort is for perverts.

It's a lovely pic, but it doesn't do justice to the argument. We need a shot with the black looking blacker all over to judge against each other. 

Based on that pic, white is edging it for me but both look cool.

Well ...... I can't be expected to do any more work today, I've been overloaded with telecaster beauty

The ones I posted were in my studio...

the ones Darren posted were taken by me at his workshop which is on a farm...

not stock pics fella!

I am generalising here,not using yours as a lone example. I see lots of photos of electric guitars that seem to be taken outdoors and in some kind of outdoor 'working environment. I wonder if the industry itself believes electric guitar players are generally from heavy industrial backgrounds?

FYI my earlier photos on this thread were taken on carpet. To confirm I am not a carpet fitter

Just looks nicer and more inviting than a plain setting with no character and fits in with the guitar/music aesthetic of warmth and character I think. If you look at most (not all) YouTube music channels you'll see lots of warm background lighting and rustic/wooden texture etc, whereas a lot of tech channels go for cooler lighting and cleaner/plainer/more modern surfaces and background props.

Parchment/White on my Candy Apple Red Bound Tele..

Black on my Blonde Tele..Single ply Black,it started out with White..It has a maple fingerboard..

White Pearl on my Natural Ash Thinline Tele..

Black.

I wish I liked Telecasters, but ive had loads and never get on with them. Id happily play one if it had massive frets and 2 humbuckers but then it's not really a Tele.

White looks cool but black gives a much better tone.
