That looks really great. Did you order a sheet and cut the entire thing yourself?

    Oh wow that looks great! Love the contrast between the black of the body and the pink of the flowers. Also I love the irony of playing heavy fucking metal out of a Telecaster shaped body.

    And I thought I didnt liked pickguards.
    It looks great, the whole guitar looks beautifull!

    I like prints of pickguards way better than prints on the body itself, always looks like a window to another realm. Really looks great!

    Looks amazing! Any tips on how to cut plastic so that it looks as professional as yours does?

    Thanks! Honestly the only real tip I have is that it's almost hard to mess it up if you have a router table at your disposal. I wouldn't feel confident making a pickguard with anything else really.

    That is so so awesome. I had a seafoam green bass that I was going to paint flowers on the pickguard. This makes me wish I had actually done it.

    I did not build the guitar, I just modified it. Body is ash, neck is roasted maple.

    nice. i bet the body weighs a good bit unless there’s some relief in there!

    always a fan of zero inlay necks, they look so clean. the white on maple really works for me
