Best pickguard/scratchplate retailer, UK ideally

[dc2009]

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a couple of pickguards at the moment, and ideally would like to find a UK based company that will sell them, or make them if necessary but not at extortionate prices. I have no issue buying from overseas, provided you don't get ripped off for it.

Specifically I think I'll be after a mirror/red wine mirror (think Steve Harris sig) P-bass pickguard soon and also a 4 string Epiphone Thunderbird pickguard in the following style:

Cheers,
Dan

Sims would be my first port of call if I couldn't find something off the shelf.

I don't think those are by any means extortionate, will give them or bass doc a go.

Thanks
