Custom Strat Pickguard

[beowolverine93]

How would I go about ordering a custom Strat pickguard with a hole for a Gibson style toggle switch instead of the Fender style blade switch?

Ask them to omit the 5 way, or simply don't check that box in the pickguard builder online, then drill it yourself.

Warmoth doesn't drill toggle switch holes in strat pickguards.

Pretty simple.

Actually, we can exchange any control for a 1/2" or 1/8" hole for +$15.00

I digress, with apologies.

Thanks for the clarification Rob.

Sweet! Thanks Rob!

How would I go about doing that though when I order the pickguard? since it's not on the order sheet or anything.

Add it in the order notes section if you place the order online.  Otherwise, be sure to mention it in email or when you call.

Which size hole should I order for a Les Paul style toggle switch?

$15 is a bit steep for something anyone with a drill can do. It slows Warmoth's production to do custom drilling, but for a customer with a simple power drill, it's a 15 second job, and it doesn't even have to be done nicely, as it will be hidden by the switch. I would do it myself.
