I understand a pickguard isn't needed with rear rout, however I much prefer the look with a pickguard.
I have a Tele body in mind, and I guess pickguard could be set up like in a ES-335.
Google search didn't find anything, am I alone in the desire to have a pickguard on a carved top guitar ?
Any thoughts ?
 
I'm not sure about companies that do it. But you could definitely make your own one. Depending on the pickup configurations you have you could even just find a 335 pickguard somewhere and modify it a little bit to fit.
 
You'll likely have to make it custom.

Warmoth sells pickguard material.
You can purchase a blank, and cut it yourself to your own specs.
 
Someone on here a while back, built atele with les paul looking hardware, and they had a pickguard like a less paul. Don't remember who it was though.
