I like that finish, but I keep thinking, "I'd have to ditch the pickguard for something else." Then I try to think what I would put in place of it, and I can't think of anything that would look really good. Admittedly, I don't care much for tortoise-shell pickguards in general.
Black - too generic
White - too bright
mint - too bright
Red - ugh, no
Mirror - too modern
I think I would try to find a clear pickguard, or a pickguard that matches the color of the bass as closely pas possible. Either that, or a custom of some type.
EDIT: Well, lookie here:
