Does EBMM have to-scale PSD/PDF templates of the pickguard shapes they use? I'm looking into designing a custom pickguard to have printed, and was hoping these might exist to facilitate loading as a layer in Photoshop to ensure proper graphics layout. I am assuming such templates from EBMM would be more precise than me trying to scan a pickguard to make my own.

Specifically, I'm looking for the Bongo 5HH and SR5 HH pickguard templates.

Thanks

I'm sure they exist, but why would they release it to the public?

It's not too tough to trace a pickguard. That's how pretty much every aftermarket person making pickguards does it, after all. Just take your time. I've gone aftermarket for quite a few pickguards, and never had a problem with fit, so you should be fine tracing the actual pickguard being replaced.

For which bass are you getting a custom made? Pace Car Blue and Firemist Orange probably look amazing together on stage. Great colors.
