from 21 reviewsBeautifully crafted custom truss rod cover. I asked for a signature, thinking it may be too much to ask for, but it's better than I could have dreamed of.
Looks fantastic and fits perfectly. Ordering your custom pickguard was very easy, and the shipping was fast. I would definitely order from them again.
Easy way to order a custom pickguard, fast reaction and delivery, good fit! Recommended!
Looks like it's supposed to and fits great. Followed the specs to 100%. Fast delivery. Worth it even though it's quite expensive.
Great service ! The pickuard is perfect and it was fast to be delivered !
Super super happy with the result! It was a challenge to find the perfect pickguard for my Jaguar build, but Steven made the perfect fit with precision and care. Super fast and great communication. Thanks!!
Terrific transaction, easy, fast and highly professional. The pickguard was made to order to fit a 23-year old Yamaha Pacifica 1511 Mike Stern. The result is stunning and exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Custom Pickguards. Besides, Steven is a pleasure to deal with!
Stevenis master at his craft. When I placed an order for my Rickenbacker he immediately asked which year it was to make a perfect fit. He even sent a pdf with the measurement to check whether the new pickguard will fit or not. Definitely would buy again!
Fantastic result. I couldn't be happier!!!
Met de grootst mogelijke precisie vervaardigde Steven een authentiek ogende slagplaat voor mijn Fender Precision-bas; vijf sterren.
Perfect experience! Steven was very communicative and was able to deliver excellent quality and perfect fit custom pickguard for my Jazz bass with thunderbird pickup in a very short timeframe.
Steven and team were super helpful, the final product is perfect and exactly to the specifications of my file (I made my design in Adobe illustrator). They even checked my file and confirmed details with me which was much appreciated. The vintage white is perfect for my '66 SG melody maker. I am looking forward to working with these guys again soon. If you're looking for a quality pickguard look no further, I have tried other off the shelf products and nothing else compares in quality. I wish them all the best!
