Where can I buy a Gibson 335 Pickguard AND the bracket for installation?

[astrozombie]

I'm trying to add a pick guard to my es-333. I find the guard itself, and the bracket by itself on ebay but each part is usually $20 dollars on it's own. Do you guys have any other resource? I'm looking for a "short" 335 guard in black, as close to gibson spec as humanly possible.

Unless a local store or a small ad in your area is offering one up, eBay seems to be your best bet

Terrapin guitars will custom cut you a 335 pickguard, and they have a template you can print out to see exactly how it'll fit.

I looked at the ones at all parts but a review said the fit was rather "generic". Kind of worries me.

Correct 335 guards have the bracket glued to the back of the guard so more than likely you'll have to buy it as 2 pieces.

Unless you want a high end repro I'd go with a WD guard and a bracket from eBay.

WD has always specialized in pickguards. I would check with them first. I will say, they are not cheap. But I will also say, they are excellent quality.

$40 for the brand new guard and bracket sounds about right to me; I wouldn't expect to do any better than that. If it has to be cheaper, then stalk E-Bay until a used set shows up for the right price, then pounce on it.

I ended up ordering the all parts guard. **** it.
