just picked up an after-market pguard and a genuine trc (at least the seller says it is and it looks like one) from ebay. i bought it to put on my 330/12 fireglo along with a set of tv knobs. then i got to thinking - maybe i should put in on the 360/6 montezuma brown? what do you all think? geoff |

They would go nice on the 360/6MB but if it were me I would leave them on the 330/12FG. |

MB looks so good with gold. See Paul's 381 and 660. |

Geoff, gold looks fantastic on an older, darker FG, not so convinced on the new 'bright' FG though. When you get the TRC, just place it on both of your gtrs & you will know instantly which one you prefer. Is it a 12 string TRC, if so, they do look quite odd on a 6 string & if it's a 6 string TRC, you will have to shape it for your 12! That may make your decision for you... |

Not to mention that 12-string TRCs are slightly different from guitar to guitar... |

If you post the ebay link Geoff, we'll be able to tell you if it's a 6 or 12... |

BTW, guys - where would one source a set of 'oven/TV' knobs (I've seen them referred to as both)? I'm thinking they might look good on my 660/12 FG! |
