I think it is the worst combination they ever came up with, reminds me of bruises.

Generally speaking, I don't like b/t .....UNLESS it's on a Shadow!!

I like the blue with WHITE trim though...

Beauty (or whatever) is in the eye of the beholder. I actually don't mind black with MG but it's certainly not my favourite combination. Montezuma/gold looks great but unfortuantely, NLA!!

Howdy,

I'll be gentle: Black trim on a Rickenbacker isn't to my taste. Let John Hall know that I still love Rickenbacker!

Respectfully,

Never liked black trim. My first Ric bass was "white" with black trim, thought it was ugly but it WAS a Ric.
