Hi, I recently got a new Sterling ray34 bass with transparent pickguard, and this plastic has been really bugging me..
mainly when playing slap, whenever I do a pop, as my finger goes under the string it hits the pickguard, and every touch like that leaves a mark on it! which is ridiculous because the stingrays are geared towards slap players..but that aside
woke up few days ago.. and there's an air bubble now in 1 spot.. no idea why..
anyways.. am I dumb and didnt realize that there's a protective layer on the pickguard that I need to peel?!? visually on the sides there's nothing that looks like it's a peel.. and I dont want to add more scratches to it, usually in guitar stores it's pretty obvious that there's a peel, cause it's half way off from people touching it
added image to give u an idea of how it doesnt look like there's a layer to peel
