I have black tack as he's a dark bay.
But I prefer brown/havana tack in general.

Has anyone got any photos of brown tack on bays?

I do but the pics are copywrited, do you want me to send them via pm?
They're not particularly good, one shows him in a brown bridle, and the other him in brown bridle and havana saddle. He has a new havana bridle but no pics yet!

I prefer black on most, apart from greys and blacks.

I have 2 bays, 1 mahogany, 1 bright. I have all black on the mahogany and brown bridle black saddle on the bright bay, but he too will be shown in a black bridle more than likely.

I'll post some pics when photobucket decided to work for me
