IKN 3Ply Wood Color Strat HSS Pickguard Guitar BackPlate Set for Standard Strat Modern Style Guitar Part

WOW, amazing quality for the price. Wanted to replace an ugly white pickguard on my fender strat. Debated on purchasing a $45 Fender brand pickguard or get this one for only $10. Honestly, I have purchased Fender OEM parts in the past and let me tell you this pickguard is every bit as good as an OEM fender product. Buy this one and take your wife out to lunch with the leftover $35 or buy some other cool guitar parts... :-)Not all the holes lined up 100%, but honestly, it's not a big deal. pickups were all spot-on. One thing I did notice was that some of the holes in the pickguard were not countersunk. Not a big deal and honestly it's easier to countersink a screw than try and find a replace screw.

I bought this to spruce up my MIM Strat. This looks good and appears to be of good quality. Unfortunately, the one thing I forgot to check before placing the order was the pickup adjustment screw holes. My Strat has three for the humbucker, two on top and on on the bottom. This pickguard only has two. Also, the humbucker hole is more squared where my original pickguard has much more rounded corners. Sure I could easily drill two holes and live with the corners, but I'll probably just return it and get one that's right.

The good points - very good 3-ply material, 2 layers of plastic covering, full shielding on back of pickguard (not just over the controls), 8 extra pickguard screws. The bad points - none as far as I'm concerned. I replaced a kit pickguard and tremolo cover, so the holes didn't all line up. I think that's mostly because the kit screw holes were in the wrong place to begin with (one of the kit screw holes almost missed hitting wood on a swimming pool route body). My recommendation - buy it.

You would think something as simple as a pickguard would be impossible to screw up -- you would be wrong. I have had a shocking number of bad experiences with ill-fitting guards in the past. Thankfully, this was not an addition to that list -- fits my American Standard ('09) Stratocaster HSS perfectly -- same quality as the original, but looks oh-so-sweet. Definitely would recommend.

The packing is very nice and I'm very impressed with the overall quality of the pickguard. You'll have to use a razor to cut off some of the shielding (visible in the picture) but it's no big deal. Unfortunately mine came with 4 or 5 scuff marks under the plastic - I assume it was because they include a pack of screws (NICE!) but they probably got jammed into the guard during shipping. The cream is a very nice vintage color and is a little more brown/tan than Fender aged white. I had previously commented that they wouldnt fit a Fender 3 hole humbucker, but was wrong - they can mount with 2 screws just fine. These guards are super nice - totally worth it.

I got the pearl pickguard, and it's very nice. I'll have to update later with my comments on how it wears, but out of the packaging, it looks very nice and it is well protected. There are not one, but TWO layers of protective plastic that have to be removed, and the second one is hard to see and remove, but it looks really dull until you remove both. I was able to fit this on a a Squire Classic Vibe Strat without any modifications, and while a couple of the holes were slightly misaligned, it didn't prevent it from being installed, and I didn't have to do any modifications. The pearl looks incredibly nice for the money, and has a really nice, 3D iridescent look to it. Don't know how it fits others, but this seems to be a good fit and cheap upgrade for the Indonesian made Strats, at least the CVs.

Nice fit, good finish. Needed light trimming at the neck. Double layer of protective film. If you get one off and think you are done look again! The mounting hole patterns on these seem to follow 3 different patterns. You need to look real hard at than if you expect it to go on your guitar with no new holes. Strats can be American, Mexican or who knows where origin. I have yet to figure out which drill pattern comes from where. This is also true for the tremolo cover.

I bought this pickguard for my Squier Affinity that is a 2008 model made in Indonesia. However, it did not fit.Per the description, it may fit American or Made in Mexico strats, but it is not close to fitting mine.I marked and drilled a few new holes in my guitar after CAREFULLY marking them. If you are somewhat handy and have the proper tools, then it is not a big deal. I could not find any pickguards that said they would fit the Indonesian-made Squier strats. It is a nice quality pickguard and looks great after installation.

This item arrived on time and is exactly as described. The quality is good and looks good against the black Strat body. A little fettling was needed to mount it but the end result is well worth the effort.

I bought it for my Squier Stratocaster - HSS - Affinity Series, made in China.The pickguard fits absolutely perfectly. The back cover didn't fit with the previous holes.. so I used one as a reference and was able to pierce new holes without anything showing.Both the pickguard and the backplate had 2 protective films to peel off each.It looks absolutely gorgeous against the white body.. I couldn't be happier! Great purchase!

Il battipenna è arrivato con imballo robusto, integro ed entro i tempi previsti. Ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo. Risulta di buon materiale robusto. Come descritto è in 3 strati con resa leggermente lucida. La resa sulla mia chitarra è eccellente. Mi sono basato sull'immagine per cercare di fare meno variazioni e fori rispetto all'originale da sostituire, ed è risultato quasi identico. Buon prodotto, consigliatissimo.

Sehr cooles, passgenaues Pickguard

So, this is high quality work, that said. I have a 2003 American highway one has and the new pick guard has the humbucker hole a bit to low and when installed with the humbucker nickel cover I have to force it into the hole, but barely clear the wood on the bridge side. Keep this in mind when buying

ottimo prodotto qualita' prezzo sulla mia fender stratocaster si adatta alla perfezione,le viti corrispondono perfettamente ai fori,ho docuto solo alesare i fori dell humbucker ma basta poco ,si monta in un attimo ed e' molto bello da vedere soddisfatto

Qualität ist topp, Verarbeitung ohne Mängel, passt aber nur für Humbucker ohne Kappe, für meinen musste ich die Fräsung etwas vergrößern. Sieht super aus auf meiner Sunburst Strat.

This is a great product! More solid than the one that came on my mexi strat...lined up perfectly on front and backplate. The color(vintage green pearl) looks awesome!

Fit my MIM Stratocaster perfectly. Screw holes all aligned perfectly. Looks great. Humbucker opening only fits coverless humbucker pickups. Too tight if you want to use a covered humbucker.

Troppo grande. Ho dovuto modificare da me la pickguard, facendo un lavoro di taglia e cuci. Per fortuna ne è uscito un buon lavoro.

Good material. Good cuts and bevels. Holes were just slightly off but no drilling required. GREAT look on my Indonesian Squier Strat.

tres bon service

Good quality made constructed.

Decent quality. Some holes did not libe up 100% but close enough. Some bits of clear plastic around the edges. About what I expected for the price.

Passt einwandfrei, zum Bruchteil des Preises des Originals
