yeah there def tort lol but which one is red and which one is brown

brown tortoise in guitar, and red tortoise is loose
some retailers label them backwards, so you got that too.

To my eye the installed one is brown and the other is red.

It's kinda like asking what color this Pollock painting is.

in case you deal with another seller, you can google "brown tortoise pickguard" and see what images show up.
I tend to like red on my 2tsb bodies. Brown looks good on natural finishes. I've gotten the switcheroo too. I'm not buying it.
