I'm looking for someone to copy a pickguard I have - it's off an SX Hawk with 2 x P90s, and TOM bridge, so not exactly your usual off-the-shelf part. Anybody got a recommendation?

I posted the link above. But want to also note that when I did my Hawk project I was able to buy a pickguard from Amazon (was a P90 guitar, changed it to HBs) that worked. Not sure whether the bridge configuration would even matter. Before I went HB I was going for just a color change and keeping the P90s…they had that guard too.

Interesting, although the pickguard I have is so weird I'm not sure I could find a good match. It's basically
- 2x P90
- NO bridge cutout (I guess I could live with a bridge cutout if I had to, although it might look weird)
- control layout is basically Volume/Volume/Tone with no Strat-style switch

Oh, and I want it in mirror, just to be extra difficult. :mrgreen:

They were excellent. Sadly the bridge pup was destroyed when I tried to remove the cover. I really wanted to keep the P90s, and all wiring. The guitar sounded really good stock. I say go for it.
