Personally I don't like pickguards on my guitars but they do look good some times so it's totally up to you. I'd suggest drawing a few pictures with the guard and see which one you like more.
I was thinking about it because I think they look really cool. But then I realized If I make my own I can make them look almost any way I want.
Oh and thanks Masina.
When you guys build your guitars do you Prefer paint, stain,wax, or some other method? I'm not sure what to do with mine so I wanted to know your thoughts.
well i wanted to know if I should use extra wood to make the neck wide enough to cut the head out or wait to see if I have enough leftover wood to make the head. And I wasn't sure if there was some kind of structural advantage between the two.
