Who sells these? Preferably in the EU/UK so I can avoid the knobhead tax.
I want parchment. |

I got mine from Jeanne Pickguards who goes worldwide .. So does Allparts but the one I got from them needed a little " finesse " to fit properly . For the UK I know WDMusic sells them (at least I think they're UK) .
Worst case order the material , stencil the guard you have and get one made by a local music shop .
I for one have always had issues when I order precut guards . |

Thanks, but no luck with WD or Allparts. The only place I've found that sells Japanese guards is guitarpartsresource.com, which would cost me a shitload in import taxes, and they don't even have the colour I want.
In fact, I don't think CIJ guards in parchment even exist, so I'll probably go down the route of getting one cut. |

The owner for Jeannie died last year.  Some people complained about him, but I was fortunate and had good results with his guards. Regret that I didn't order that replacement guard for my Jagmaster before he passed. Now it's gonna cost considerably more or I'll have to cut it myself.

I just ordered one from GuitarPartsResource a few weeks ago and installed it to my Jag HH to SS conversion. Turned out to be an AllParts Tort. The tort was meh and I had to mod it a little to fit properly . Chances are I'll be buying a Spitfire down the road . Tort these days sucks anymore .Unless they're labeled Fender they're AllParts . And I know for sure they have mint . Close to the parchment. Prolly a lil nicer ... And it was cheap . $30USD? |
