Here is my custom "Thumb Rest".

Couldn't stand the thumb rest on the top of the line Warwick "Alien". As a dedicated and unapologetic pick player, the thumb rest made the E string completely unplayable.

I enlisted John Ingram of PRS to remove it for me and unfortunately we found this:



Shame on them for marking up that fine wood with an exacto knife.

So, we took a thin slice of the original thumb rest and voila:



A custom thumb rest (not)!

I'd just been doing some research myself on this & pending a better suggestion from anyone else this seems to be the place [url="http://www.classicguitarboxes.com/thumb_rests.php"]http://www.classicgu...thumb_rests.php[/url]

Mine weren't orange though but this guy seems to do custom orders.
