Re: Vine Pickguard


Hey,

I installed one of these, and obviously the holes did present a problem. I just didn't want dust and whatnot getting into the cavity. What I did was found a fabric that 'compliments' the guitars own style/colour. Might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I really like it. Basically just cut the fabric to size and glued it to the underside of the pickguard.

Here's a couple of examples. I ended up going with the green in the end.
