Fender XII replacement pickguard / scratchplate

[jessetrbo]

Greetings:

I did a cursory search, but didn't find results; perhaps my query was too specific. I have a mid '60s Fender XII guitar that I love, but it has some issues that I'd like to address. Where is the best place to order a replacement pickguard for the guitar (Fender XII)???

My instrument is olympic white and sports a (shrinking) tortoise shell colored pickguard. Any advice on a new replacement is greatly appreciated. I've owned the guitar since the '90s and it's always been a problem (though it hasn't stopped me from playing/recording with it). Next up, a new nut (ouch).

Thanks,

--Jesse

How does $25 delivered free sound?

If you want like for like, go for a Spitfire guard. Expensive but worth every penny. There really isn't anything out there as accurate and, as you probably already know, there's something special about the molten swirls of real nitrocellulose tort.

If you just want an easy replacement & don't mind the colour change, that $25 guard looks like a good option.
