stainless steel pickguard

[loversmoon]

I have heard that they can interfere with the magnets in the pickup? I was thinking of putting one on my cabronita (rosie) build but wanted some input before I did it.

There are different grades of stainless. Some are less magnetic and those are the best to use. Even an aluminum pickguard can mess with the eddy currents even though it's not magnetic. But people do use them without any trouble. So, just be sure to get one that is not very magnetic.

Is this going to be made custom or are they available somewhere?

And what about anodized aluminum? They look good, and don't, as far as I know, affect pickups.

It will be made custom as I dont know anywhere to get a cabronita pickguard made out of any typle of steel
