I have a trans black WR1. It has black hardware at the mo. I was thinking of putting gold hardware on it, possibly with white pickups. I recently went on ebay to find a trans blue DK2 fitted with white Dimarzio's and gold hardware. Should I do the same to my trans black WR1, or will it look naff?

Gold, yes. White, no. -

white pickups "only" fit in SOME white guitars (but still most people prefer black ones) and in white pickguards? Your guitar is black, it has an aggressive shape, don't make it look ridiculours ^^. Black pickups definitely, and gold hardware looks pretty cool on black finishes. I'd say change the hardware and post pics !Comment

Yep, if the guitar is pure white (i.e. Snow White) then white pickups work, and IMO they need white rings (not cream or black) but not on Trans Black, that would just look odd.
For a good idea of the overall outcome, take a look at a Mocha PC1. Gold looks great on Trans Black and Trans Blue!Comment
