At The Guitar Company, we craft these pickguards by hand, using only the highest-quality materials. This pickguard is made of tortoise celluloid and features classic 3-layer binding around the edges. To ensure a perfect finish, each pickguard is polished by hand.<\/p>\n

To ensure the pickguard fits your guitar perfectly, we leave the mounting holes undrilled, as their position may vary from guitar to guitar.<\/p>\n

Each order comes with a free set of stickers.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
