AVAILABLE FIRESTRIPE AT REVERB
Available pick guards can be purchased at my Reverb Store by following the link above.
No custom orders available until further notice.
Please note:
The “Tinted” or “Sunburst” pickguards are shaded using tinted nitrocellulose lacquer. They are then over sprayed with clear nitrocellulose lacquer, prior to buffing and polishing. The finish on the “Tinted” pickguards will show finish checking, finish crazing, spider webbing, or whatever your favorite term for this may be. It looks fine when replacing a guard on a vintage guitar, because the crazing fits right in with the old vintage finish. Some people don’t prefer this when they are installing the pickguard on a new guitar. However, there is no way that I am aware of to avoid the finish crazing if you want a tinted guard. The way to avoid it is to install the “Natural” or “Un-tinted” pickguard. The natural ones have no lacquer on them. The hard resin finish is buffed and polished and will not show any signs of crazing.
