A carefully-accurate reproduction of the pickguards found on the very first Fender Stratocasters (1954-1956). This is a single-ply in white at 1.5mm (0.06") thickness.
Carefully aged with superficial cracking in the right places (the top-edge screw holes were particularly prone to cracking for these pre-CBS parts, particularly in the very early ones), playing marks, minor shrinkage and discolouration. Buffed for an accurate cellulose texture.
Cut from the original 1950s eight-hole template this will fit directly onto original vintage guitars as well as more modern '50s Fender American and Mexican reissues.
