Try Ebay. Or some online guitar shops.

sense of ownership.

sense of ownership. Very Happy

agreed! hah but to make a perfectly shaped pickguard takes a lot of time and patience. but yea dude, its not easy to find ready made ones locally. so as lifele55 said, ebay or online guitar shops would be good. but then the amount paid including shipping, you might as well get grey to do it! lol

 

[Ahjon]

i tink the money i spend trying to buy the materials tryin over and over again would cost more den asking gr3y to help

Actually a DIY isn't hard to do IF you have the tools. Else it could be a real hassle.

Unless you're still in school then at least can use technical room equipment to cut out the material and buff or something.

Just get the kind of material you want, take out your pickguard, trace it. Cut, drill holes, put back on guitar. LOL, sounds simple.

ahha yeah la
bro

my sch kinda dun haf de tools also ar
:twisted:

:smt042

why don't just try and look online, maybe can get a good price? who knows.

 

[Ratboy]

use a real mirror and get it custom cut to fit
that will really reflect !!!

 

[deathism]

wah...knock it and it might juz shatter!

or better still play some pinch harmonics or do some whammy squeals..


*SHATTERS*

*steps*

*ouch*

*falls on glass fragments*

*MEGA OUCH!*


moral of the story: u must be suicidal.. :lol:

 

[foxblinkhope]

just wanna ask to those who know about their tools, what can be used to cut the shape of the pickups ar? since it starts from the mid?

 

[ahmad0410]

What i used to do when i need to cut a rectangular hole in the middle is i drill the 4 corners first.. then use a coping saw to cut along the corners..

Parklane's Basement hve S-S-H mirro pickguard.

Davis at Peninsular has mirror pickguard too.

GuitarConnection at Peninsular may have it either as 2nd hand or New ones(i even spotted a gold one. LOLS).

Before that was looking for items to custom my strat so came across those pickguard. Dont give up sure have one, I found my pickguard and pink knobs too ^^. Takes time

Hope this will hope you find your pickguard.
