That's because that photo is overexposed. It can be hard to get good photos of reflective items that show colours well.
It's not helped that gold can cover quite a wide colour range.
In other news, got the cavities all screened this eve!...

Adhesive copper tape (slug tape) works well for me.
however, if you want a cheap as chips solution, this from screwfix works just as well but is a little thin.

Trem, jack holder and neck plate all came pre aged, subtle but looks good.
started to age the tuners:

Will give the knobs and covers a bit of wear at some point as well.
got the wiring done (albeit in an old scratchplate)

Wired up as per Dan Armstrong’s blend circuit and also added a base plate to the bridge pup...
thats all all I can do now until I get my neck from @GSPBASSES
Still need to source the correct coloured scratch plate but if push comes to shove I have a few I can use!...
I can only seem to find “dark” gold fender guards, I know they do a lighter one, the local guitar shop has two cs strats hanging up with the exact guards on them!!!!
according to fender rep they don’t even make an 8 hole guard, which is crap coz I’ve just ordered one!!!
