Looking to replace a lefty PBass copy (SX) pickguard. Any suggestions of good places to look?
Thanks. :)

I've used Warmoth. Good stuff.

if you want an exact match, the best way to go about this is to remove your pickguard, box it and ship it to a place that makes duplicates (so they have a template) and have a new one made in your color of choice

I've used two places with good success:

* Jeannie Pickguards
* Pickguardian

while Warmoth does a superb job, they are limited in what pickguards they will make you ... and they won't duplicate your pickguard to ensure that all of the screw holes are in the exactly correct location

all the best,

R

Chandler makes just about every pickguard known to man. They may be a bit pricier, but I contacted them a while ago about making me a lefty Guild B302 pickguard and they had no problem with the request:
