Chewie Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 (edited) Hello Groovers, I've been putting together a stack knob jazz and was "considering" treating the thing to a lovely guard. Any of you guys and gals used these people? https://www.lavapickguards.com I think this has got real potential............

Reggaebass Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Hi chewie, just a suggestion, assuming your looking for tort?, the pickguards on the 62 reissues are really nice, they aren’t red like a lot of them they are darker, I’ve got a pic if you need one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffb28451 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Gorgeous and very pricey. I've dropped $$$$ for Lull, Sadowsky, even Fodera, but I've never had a bass I liked enough to spend this much for a pickguard...yet...they are very nice though, maybe...just this once...

pickfordguards Posted March 23 Share Posted March 23 Hey guys, thanks for the kind words! My guards are not celluloid, I mainly started with focusing on the 1990s Fujigen Red Tortoise guards as I've always been a big fan of them, but have experimented into late 60s inspired stuff as well more lately. My stuff isnt for everyone, but I like to think I offer a good alternative to the big guys in terms of price. Cheers! - John 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
