Spitfire7

I just received a few PBass guards in the mail and I will try to cut a temporary template today and see how it works. Will let you guys know.

Alright Im in. Hey guys. I am Spitfire aka Mark and yeah like you may have heard, its is true I am much like you guys on the quest to finding that holy grail tortoiseshell. Well let me just say I search high and low all across the world and its doesn't exist anymore.... until now!!! As the "About me" article that Zenitam posted, I have composed my own material and have recreated the vintage looking soft, smokey, sometimes fiery, vintage burgundy tortoiseshell material. I am currently in the works right now on getting templates for Jazz bass and P bass made. Hopesully it wont be much longer. Please feel free to check out more of what I do on my website here http://spitfiretortoiseshellpickguards.wordpress.com/pictures-and-styles/ I can do just about any style you like within reason. Looking at the gallery on my site you will see that I am not lying when I say I can do just about any style you like. Thank you for welcoming me over into the bass world. This is a new things within the last 2 years and I pretty much have the Jazzmaster and Jaguar market and expanding over to you guys. I have a list I can put you on and as soon as my templates are ready I can contact you. If you would like to be on that waiting list, just PM me. If you have any questions or would like to see pictures, just let me know. Here are a few pictures just to give you an idea of what I have created so far. These were all custom made and exactly what the customer requested. I can get about 75% close to any picture you send.
