PICKGUARDS
If you need a custom made pickguard, look no further. All we need from you is a template to work with. To get the best results we always recommend sending in your original guard, which we use to plot out the new replacement one. But if you really don't want to send in you original, then we can work from a detailed sharp tracing. Remember though we can only get the new guard as good as the tracing itself!
If you want a new guard with different pickups, no problem, as long as we know the new placement position. If you are wanting to fit a new custom pickup, no problem. All we might need is the new pickup dimensions.
You may just want the same shape and use the same pickups, but just want to change the colour and give your guitar a new look. We offer many different material choices, so just ask if its not the standard. If we can source the material, then we can cut it. We can also work with your own material if you already have that and just charge for the originating and machining.
When it comes to costs and pricing, not all material is the same. Prices for standard plastic materials range from £40 to £80 depending on materials ( see below ). Standard blacks and whites are always the cheapest, whereas something like a pearloid colour will always be the dearer option.
