Prototype #1 of our upcoming Blackguard Replica with "Grain Lines"
Ready for Immediate Shipping - 1 of 1
Our upcoming Blackguard Replica is aimed to be The Ultimate Blackguard.
Capturing every detail of the originals down to the screw hole sizes, the outer shaping, and even buffing compound residue on the sides, but it can't be crowned the "best" if the grain lines aren't replicated correctly.. we haven't seen any retail blackguard on the market that replicates the grain lines, let alone accurately, and that's exactly what we're testing here!
This is our first prototype and we plan to continue pushing forward and improving this technique, but we think this guard is too cool to sit around our shop and not be used.
- Finished in Nitrocellulose Lacquer
- Circle Overspray on back side
- Pointed Shaping on Bottom Right Corner (missed by most repros)
- Grain Lines worn into lacquer

Fit Info
Fit Info
Vintage Collection Info:
Our Pickguards are Made to USA Specs, which will typically fit Mexico, USA and Custom Shop guitars. Some Vintage Guitars may have small tolerance variations with fit due to being built without CNC.
Our Knobs, Covers & Tips are made to fit USA Imperial Sized Electronics (ie: CTS pots, CRL Switches, Switchcraft Switches, USA Pickup Pole Spacing, etc.) These specs will also match with most Mexican, Custom Shop or Genuine Vintage Guitars. Knobs with Set Screws are typically made to fit Solid Shaft Pots.
Our Hardware typically uses Genuine Branded Parts (Fender, Gibson, Kluson, etc) or Our Own Gotoh Made items. These items should all be a direct fit with the respective guitars from those manufacturers (Mexico, USA, Custom Shop and most Vintage Guitars should be compatible, but always refer to the sizing in the description).
