Fitting a lespaul pickguard?
« on: June 06, 2011, 10:56:25 PM »
Bibili ako lespaul pickguard for my fernando les paul copy, may nakita akong seller, problem is di ko sure kung kakasya ba pickguard niya saken, Ive researched sa google on what to do pero still no luck. Naisip ko mag measure of some sort para mag kaalaman, only problem is di ko alam kung ano dapat yung imeasure, help sirs.

Thank you!

No chance to meet with him to fit the actual pickguard on your guitar?

Kung wala, measure mo yung mga dimensions ng pickguard. Distance ng mounting rings, length ng pickguard, kung saan immount yung bracket, etc..

Go full custom! Take measurements and have somebody cut you a piece from a blank acrylic sheet. That way, you can even select your own shape that fits perfectly. :-)

Same dilemma. The previous owner of my Fernando LP lost it's pickguard. :( I wouldn't mind mine without one but it would be better if I have a pickguard in hand. :) I think cutting ang acrylic sheet will be a good idea too. :)
How can you tell a person whether the band he or she listens to is RIGHT or WRONG?

OR better find a shop that does CNC cutting :-D its a calculated machine that slices stuff with precision :-D most industrial shops have it

Onga e sir, yung sa case ko naman pinamigay yung pickguard huhu. Di ko talaga alam san mag uumpisa sa measurements e, ayaw ko na kasi mag hahanap ng mag cucut ng acrylic sheet and stuff, gusto ko sukat tapos bili nalang, pero pag wala ng choice e mag cut ng acrylic sheet nalang, papagawa nalang ako haha.
