Need help customizing my StingRay HH

[Dinoo]

Hello, just brought a StingRay Ivory white( first EBMM) and love the sounds and feel of it and looks, but might want change tuner buttons to pearl ones and pick guard to different color . I haven’t had any luck finding a replacement picks guard for the stingray anyone know of place I can buy one? Also, considering change the pickup cover to white or cream as chrome smudge easily. Any help will be appreciated Thanks!

Dinoo, welcome man congrats on the Stingray!!! Have you tried contacting Customer Service and seeing if they have any other pick guards? I'm sure you can get the tuner buttons from Schaller, since they make them.

As for the pup cover, no help there sorry.

Also, it doesn't exist without pictures man!!!! Hahahahahahaahahaha

Pickguards - Pickguard Heaven: Pickguards for Every Guitar
I've used them
(think they may actually do stuff directly for MM)

For PUP covers, you can get the plastic Hum covers direct form Musicman - i've bought all three colours - black, parchment, mint - from them.

Thank you! Yeah I found the turners on Schaller. The other stuff couldn’t find much about them.

Does plastic cover effect tone at all?

By the way, the links we’ve provided are the same company. One is just there newer website. I’ve used them plenty - they are ace.
They also have ‘ice’ guards in Black and White but you have to ask as they are not standard order

Personally, changing pickup covers is dicey at best. They are usually waxed after the covers are put on, so taking them off is a pain. They also are usually soldered on.
