Looking for a good place to get a custom pickguard.

[Gabe]

I'm trying to find a website or custom shop where I can get a custom pickguard for the strat that I am working on. problem is that the route is p-90/humbucker/p-90 and can't find a single website with a pickguard routed for that. I also don't want something that covers up the finish too much, just looking for something that will complement the body, which is high-grade flame maple with tiger's eye finish. A pickguard I am hunting for is a one with a tiger painted on or a tiger inlaid onto the pickguard, so if anyone knows a good custom shop or website where I could find something like this I would appreciate it.

I also found some places where I could buy the actual inlay and then put it on the pickguard myself, not sure how I'd go about doing that though, not very skilled with a dremel.

Cliff is the guy that runs Shark Custom Inlay and he is on this forum, I just don't know what name he goes by.

He does some really nice inlay work and I have seen him do knobs, truss rod covers, and rear covers.
I have never seen any pics of pickguards by him, but it would'nt hurt to ask.
Good luck &  :rock-on:

thanks, I emailed cliff about what I was trying to obtain and he replied to me quickly, seems like a nice guy. Going to draw out a sketch for him and see if he can do what I am trying to go for.

Another vote for these guys. I've purchased from them before, they do good work.

their website is not the best, but he was able to track down a vintage Peavey template for me.  He does nice work.  If there is any doubt, just talk to him live.  Some cool looking material to.  I love the vintage/aged pearloid.
