Hey Granny, I'm not sure what you mean by "limed" finished, but my NR repro is Butterscotch Blonde, a trans finish for what it's worth. I wasn't sure how a typical Fender color would work on a TB, but I think it turned out really nice. Hence, my thought that a trans blonde/white might be cool on an LP. When have you ever seen one of those? I mean come on, now we're seeing shell pink SG RIs for crying out loud!!!!
As for black hardware, I'd have to think about that one some........
