White. It doesn't look quite as good as the black one, but on a dark bandstand, white is way better in my opinion.

Obviously, I'm pretty partial to white. The Professional in the last pick now belongs to Rick. *sigh*: the one that got away..... |

I like the black on black, don’t particularly like the dust catcher style though…

| White all day long. Johnnie, just a tip when you put a replacement pad on a guitar from a case maker. Leave a 3/4" border so that there is something to hang a guitar by on the back neck. If you don't leave a border there's no room for a case brace to catch the steel on the back neck.Thanks. |

Dan, You have two beautiful Buds! I am still very deeply in love with that 1970 Professional, "The Red One," you mentioned. I may need a roadie soon...it's heavy! But that's the biggest reason I have it, if I remember right. Haha.

White is cool, but...the one time I played a steel with white boards on stage, the stage lights made the strings cast shadows...lots of them.
It was really disorienting...

Well, look at you two! Playing places that have lights over the stage.
