Paint fuscia over the green. Paint black over both. Sand off the edges to show all three colors in stripes.

What about a new pick guard? I kinda like the green but maybe a black guard would go better with it? That said I voted fuchsia.

I hope you do it by yourself because it will cost your more money to refinish it a couple times than the guitar itself ;) :p
I'd go LPB or black

Maybe give it a racing stripe?

I do agree with changing the pickguard. Tort feels a little off with green.

I think fuchsia with that pickguard would look nice! That shade of green is going to forever be Christmas green to me.
