These are my latest offering!

Alligator embossed leather pick guards for Stratocasters, die cut.

They will have shielding in the back as well as a super thin poly stiffener.

Let me know what ya think!

They come with screw holes for pickups and toggle, the ones around the perimeter I dont do so they will fit different applications. I send detailed instructions with the pickguard. But its very easy to do.

Put your existing pickguard on the front or back of mine (with as bumpy as the gator is, back is easier on these models)
Line it up (using pickup covers make this easy)
Start all the screws going through you old one as a template into the leather
Remove screws
Place leather pickguard and screw on!

If you want I can put the outside mounting holes too.

Thanks!

Eric

I got one for my parts tele when he first started doing them. Its great, well done, feels so much better than plastic. What an attention getter. Eric is the easiest guy to get along with, he wants your business and he shows it by doing what he says he'll do.

"My Rejuvenated Guitars"
Belated thank you Eric. Your custom leather pickguards have truly rejuvenated two of my favorite guitars. The Tele. Pro-Tone is 16 years of age, and the American Strat. is now 27, but after finally getting around to installing them I must admit they both look almost like new again. I also believe that they resonate better with leather as opposed to plastic. Not to mention the pure aroma of fresh calf-hide every time I pick one of these puppies. Your workmanship is of the highest quality, and am looking forward to dealing with you in the near future. All the best,
Eddy
