Just thought I would share in case any lefty is looking for the nearly unobtainable Tele Deluxe style pickguard (unless you want to pay like $75...)

This seller on eBay made me a very nice looking one. Looks like they have a 2nd one available.

I am going to modify a regular tele body and didn't want to route the switch in the upper position so this setup looked like the best option.

You asked a chinese vendor to make you a 1 off and he did? That's pretty cool.

Yup. They did great work too. Took a little longer, but it was right before CNY that I bought it so I knew it would be delayed. I have had that happen almost every year I had a tool build going on in China, so it wasn't a surprise. I knew this year would be especially long as a lot of folks there haven't been able to go home over CNY since 2019.
