If you get the guard made aren't you going to have to tear it down to put it on?

It seems like you have enough guitars that you could stand to have the Charvel out of commission for a few weeks, if the reassembly is that much of a PITA for you. I've had my #1 out of commission for months. I just play my other guitar.

Due to space and grumpy wife, I have only one axe at my apt.. everything else is in storage. the charvel has been my main player since she arrived.. I can tear it down and store it..

I admit, im also being lazy.. I got SOO burned out of working on them doing pickup swaps and hearing my wife ***** about me working on them etc...

Ill just tear it down..

Power to you, my friend.

I couldn't deal with a woman who can't respect my interests/hobbies.

Oh - that changes things. I presume that since you're asking, you've determined that it's not just a standard strat shape. I'd contact Charvel and see if they can help you out.

The dude at pickguardian has a So-Cal pattern if you want to order from him . . .

Re: Accurate tracing of a Char So cal pickguard

I didnt see any patterns except rics.. Oh well, my lazy ask tore her down today and made the trace.. Funny, I got my WM526 out of storage to replace the charvel and its made me realize how much I friggen love that charvel. it just feels perfect in my hands and the tone is great. The WM is so dark sounding.. gonna be a long few weeks.
A side note... I work nites, wife works days. Im nearly deaf and she has eagle ears. Ive been snoring bad due to sinus' and so Ive been sleeping on the couch. I sit up and play for awhile before I go to sleep since Im out there. The other night, I fell asleep playing and when I woke, my kids were giggling at me. I had the charvel under the covers in my arms and the headstock on the pillow beside me. guess its love...

When you say 'kids', do you mean little humans, or little guitars ??
