Re: Need schematics for a pickguard that suits Jackson DK2 Dinky
Keyboard? You mean neck?
You could order something like this
http://www.warmoth.com/Pickguard/StratPickguard.aspx
And then do some alterations, or order a pickguard blank.
But i mean the schematics are in front of you, all you need to do is whip out a ruler
the pic came out weird, but it's a strat without any control or pickup cuts plus a floyd cutout for bridge

Ok, what I'm seeing in the picture is a USA Jackson neck with birdseye maple board. That would not be a "copy of a DK2", but rather a Dinky USA or DK-1 (depending on the year it was made).
Putting a pickguard on a Jackson Dinky (USA or otherwise) is not something you really want to consider. For one thing, the body dimensions are quite different from a Strat, which is all you're going to find, and you'll have a hole in the top as well as a hole in the back of the body.
I think some place makes pickguard-shaped stickers if you're trying for a Strat look, or you could sell the Dinky and get an Adrian Smith import Dinky, a Charvel SoCal, or get a Strat.

Ya, no pickguard dude.
I won't even mention the fact that a schematic has nothing to do with this since it seems like you used some translator software. Ah crap, I did...

Actually I think he means one that has the same pickup layout, what with the middle pickup not being centered like a traditional Strat. Older Jacksons always left enough room between the neck and middle so you could route the neck for a humbucker and still have the middle pickup evenly spaced between the bridge and neck.

Well I mean if we're giving opinions and not advice solely on acheiving what's in question then
Don't Put A Pickguard On That Guitar
No reason for it at all. It's non reversible and the guitar looks great how it is

Thanks for your opinions guys.
Btw, an independent guitar producer built the body for me.
I bought a blank seluloid pickguard but i could't figure out how to
draw cutlines at neck. Because there is not enough room between the neck pickup
and neck. Also after reading some stuff on net I started to doubt about screwing holes on the top and the back of the body.
I think I won't do it cos atm it sounds great, has awesome sustain and sound and I don't wanna risk that.
