It was on eBay, I was neither the buyer nor the seller. The seller was Hoboken Vintage.

The knobs complete the look, IMHO. Makes you think of Lennon's 325 (or whatever its # designation was) right away. Did you have these parts custom made?

Just the pickguard.
The TRC and knobs are original ric parts, the pickguard was made by pickguardian to match the TRC.

Oooh that's nice. I've always questioned the ubiquity of white pg's these days. Especially on MG's which, imo, look way better dressed in black.

I like the gold guards, but duplicating the awkward contours and radii of the '97-up guard just doesn't work for me aesthetically. I think a gold painted standard right handed TRC would look better on the upside down headstock than a left handed one which ends up being upside down. Doesn't make any sense to me that way.

Hard to tell on the photo, but are the shoes removed and the PU exposed? Or is it just a dark reflection across the shoes?
