#12 Pickguards.

R.I.P.

A JEM Ibanez the color of the Red Special with similar pickups, knobs, etc. would have been cool.

I want to make a custom pickguard for an old Peavy guitar I have. I already have the material, but don't have a router.

Would a band saw melt the plastic?

Looks like an expensive coffee table (and I say that as a compliment).

I'm in Colorado. It's super dry here (insanely dry in winter). The yellow Strat in my avatar was built in 2013. I ordered the neck unfinished. I had the fretboard sprayed with satin urethane clear, the face of the headstock a gloss urethane clear, and I finished the back of the neck with about 9...

I'd rather have dry than humid. Acoustic guitars are a different story.

Not entirely sure what you're asking. I also live in a very dry climate. Your frets are going to need leveled anyway since Warmoth does not do that, and at that time, the fret ends would get filed smooth if they are protruding as a result of wood shrinkage. I've never had any problems with any...

Get the Dimarzio Area T bridge pickup. Use a 500k Volume control, and wire the Tone control to the bridge only.

Malcom didn't use a neck pickup.

Dimarzio Air Norton: 12.58k, AlNiCo 5. I tried a Duncan JB (16.6k) wired in parallel and it really didn't sound all that good, so I put the Air Norton back in.

My Dimarzio Air Norton sounds great in parallel. I have no experience with Filtertron, and am not trying to draw a comparison.
