Hi I thought It was a great idea to make my own Scratch/ Pickguard, not knowing what colour I wanted or how many holes (8 or11) I gave it a lot of thought and decided on a Brass 8 hole for a 50s Strat..........How many hours I have spent on this I'll never know, but believe me it's one of the most boring long winded jobs I've ever done, but the finnished article looked good..........Until I left it for a couple of weeks and the brass had tarnished making it unuseable.............It's now at the Gold platers.......Maybe a lesson to be learnt here.........GET A READY MADE ONE
Have you had a go at making one , come on tell us about it.........
