Special Pickguard Wanted...

[maya29]

Greetings.... I've searched high & low for a pickguard much like the one attached pic, UT for a SC Strat Little '78 pickup. I'd prefer not angled, but straight or perhaps a reverse angle.... No 5-way switch cut-out, & the single pot sorta where it is in the picture, or not hole at all.. that i can drill to my liking.
Thanks in advance for any direction!!

Ideal place for a volume control is the standard middle hole on a Strat.

Strat Guards

Along with classic Strat designs, we offer extensive Custom Strat options to customize a pickguard or create your own unique guard design.

Choose the custom pick guard option. You can pick from everything from knob placement to pickup routing. I've used them multiple times. Good stuff.

What you're seeking shouldn't be a problem for anyone who does this sort of thing. The folks at Warmoth should be able to do that.

Warmoth rocks. I just got another custom pickguard.

I have a few like that. I get them off Amazon. I think the store is called Music Lily. They're pretty good quality, and fit my MIM Strat with no issues.

Every MIM Strat I've owned has been fantastic.

20yrs ago prolly not. But there are some pretty nice Strats coming out of Mexico.
Sorry if the cork doesnt smell of furmented grapes and expendable cash flow.

Especially with the Fender subsidiaries, the Ensenada factory has the best guitar for your dollar

So I was thinking I may want to change the color of the pickguard on my new Donner

But it has a unique shape that may or may not accept a standard strat guard

So instead of ordering a custom made one that may or may not line up either

I was thinking, my old favorite recommendation is contact paper

I found this peel and stick on Amazon
In solid colors

Its 17 inches wide and about 8 ft long
So should be enough to do several guards

I say go for it.

Wonder what this would look like as a replacement for tortoise

I wonder if you could get some of the stuff they do car wraps with for this. That is pretty tough and attaches nicely without wrinkles.
