Acrylic pickguards and
back plates are more fragile than the typical
vinyl ones most are familiar with. Always use
the utmost of care when installing components
into an Acrylic pickguard, never tighten any
fastener too tight and never tighten any
perimeter mounting screw any tighter than just
to the point where the screw barely snugs the
pickguard or back plate down to the surface of
the body. Never flex or put undue pressure
on any part of the Acrylic pickguard or back
plate or you will break it.
Occasionally we find
very small cosmetic imperfections in the surface
of our Acrylic pickguards and back plates,
typically they are small bubbles, spots and thin
lines, but is not limited to these types of
imperfections. These minor imperfections are not
something we consider as defective since they
are an effect of the Acrylic casting / handling
process. Unfortunately we cannot determine if
any Acrylic pickguard or back plate is going to
have any of these imperfections until the entire
pickguard or back plate fabrication
procedures are complete, so there is no way to
pick and choose an absolute "perfect" pickguard
for a project beforehand. For the most part it's
a non-issue and inconsequential and we will
never let any pickguard go out that we feel has
any characteristic that is obviously
unacceptable. We've made well over two thousand
of these Acrylic pickguards and back plates and
some occasionally have these characteristics and
no one has yet felt the need to complain. With
that being said, we felt it was best to make
sure you were aware of these possibilities to
avoid any surprises.
