G'day folks,

Can someone trace me a G&L Assat Classic Tele pickguard please.

Either mail it to me in Australia or possibly fax it, whatever is easier.

Let me know what you want in return.:notworthy

Cheers, Will

I don't have that guitar...but I do know that Pickguard Heaven is the maker of O.E.M. G&L pickguards, so they already have a template for anything G&L. http://pickguards.us/pricegandl.html

Thanks mate. I'm actually wanting to mod some new tele guards for a few few projects and want to replicate
the soft upper end of the guard towards the bridge. I want these projects to look a little different.

Cheers

If you need help in anyway let me know. Pr hence guitars in hervey bay can cut guards and design them.

Thanks Raph,

I just want a paper template to mod that little horn on my guards.
I've cut my own guards before and not daunted, just want to replicate
that little bit as I think that it's Leo's final gracefull evolution of the Tele guard.

Salud!!

Ah; understood. I agree that the G&L guards are nice. (Keep in mind that the ASAT bodies are also a slighlty different shape, though, so the more rounded guard might look a little different on a real Tele.)

If you can't find what you're looking for shortly, lemme know. I have a friend who is a final assembly builder at G&L, and I'm sure he could trace a guard for you, if not simply get you one.

Hey man, that sounds great. I really only need the tracing of that bit but of the whole guard would be great:bigok:

PS, still got those PJ QP's I got from you. Would you reckon they would benefit from Basslines
Active EQ or passive be OK? PM me your thoughts

Cheers, Will

What allowance are you making for the attachment screw positions? The Fender and G&L 'plate holes do not line up.

The G&L holes in the area concerned would be hidden should ever a trad Tele guard be applied.
Remember it's just the little bit on the top rear part that I'm talking about. Normal Tele guard will cover it if needed.
Given that the bodies have not been drilled for guards, got nothing to loose, no brainer.

FYI, I shot my friend a "text" about tracing a guard. He said he'll be able to do it. How soon do you need the tracing?

I ordered guards from Terrapin with great fit. Here is their PDF of an ASAT Classic which you can scale through a printer in 1 to 1 scale.
