Musiclily Pro Feuille de Protection de Guitare Électrique/Basse Matériau Brut de 435x290mm, Plaque Anti-Rayures, 3 Couches

This was for a pickguard cut out for a strat shaped bass. Two pickup cutouts, some tight radii around the neck and 6 holes for pots and switches. Then the holes were drilled for the pickguard screws �Cabout 1/4�� from the edges. It was a chore, but the cuts were clean and the material stayed intact.I used the Dremel Rotary cutter at low speed and a coping saw blade when things were a straighter cut. If it��s your first time, try it on similar material or use a portion that isn��t on your finished line �Cfor practice. Things can go terribly wrong when the dremel walks or chatters. This can be controlled with technique, but it requires practice. Also a drill bit can get a bit too aggressive on this material near the edge and cause breakout. Plastic bits or a glass spade bit are nice to have and cut without grabbing the material. A Unibit also works well.There was no chipping of the top layer and the finished product looks as good as anything coming out of a guitar factory these days. Compared to a Sterling or Ibanez pickguard, it��s on par. I got tortoise and pearl green. Both are very typical of the popular instrument wrap on higher end drums or plastic pickguard material. This plastic doesn��t present like a cheap knockoff. Top layer is pretty thin, but it isn��t just a decal. It��s a plastic layer of durable material with depth and a pearl look to it. It was a GOOD BUY... ok, Good bye

Product was packaged well, and arrived with protective film coating that removed easily in one piece. The blank is great quality, same feel and thickness as guards I've bought from premium guitar parts companies. Bought this to practice engraving on for a custom build, but I could easily see using this for any guitar build.

J'ai utilisé ce matériau pour découper une plaque de protection pour une guitare construite de zéro, voir photo. Ce matériau se machine bien, et la couleur blanc vieilli était un excellent choix pour l'apparence usée que je souhaitais pour cette construction. Je suis très satisfait du produit et du résultat final. Conseil professionnel : pour un aspect encore plus usé, découpez la plaque de protection de sorte que le dos mat du matériau soit orienté vers l'avant !

I've never made a pick guard before and my ASAT classic alnico le is almost impossible to find online, so I thought I'd give this a shot. I'm glad I did! Really think it turned out great.I traced my old guard out onto 1/2" MDF and cut that out with a jig saw getting close to my line. Then I used double sided tape to tape my old guard to the MDF. I used a flush trim bit raised just high enough to roll on the old guard to finish out the cutting on the MDF. I sanded any bumps I had on the MDF to make nice, smooth, sweeping lines. Then I traced the old guard onto the blank and cut just outside the line with my jigsaw. I placed that onto the MDF and used the flush trim bit to do a final cut on the blank. Finally, I used a 30�� bevel bit to put a chamfer on the new guard.Take it slow and it will look great! High quality and easy to cut.

C'est un matériau de haute qualité. J'ai cherché une couleur verte menthe précise. C'est très difficile à trouver. Cette verte menthe est la plus proche que j'ai trouvée sur Amazon. J'ai été impressionné par Musiclily sur la plupart de leurs produits. Je joins une photo du modèle brut vert menthe à côté de ma Stratocaster de 1964 pour que vous puissiez voir à quel point c'est proche. Peut-être qu'un frottement avec du cirage brun le rendra encore plus proche. Dans l'ensemble, je recommanderais cette plaque de protection et cette couleur.
