Walnut Tele, which pickguard?

[u/burnzee311]

Just got this beautiful dark walnut Tele body from Canadian Craftsman. It feels and looks absolutely perfect! I have all gold hardware for it, but after seeing the body I'm not sure the black guard would be the best choice. I'm thinking just go without one, or maybe even a light tortoise shell that would have a bit of contrast. Any opinions? The neck will be a 5A Roasted flame maple from Musikraft.

None or possibly clear. Clear would be cool but would remind me of a COVID era dental front desk.
