where to find transparent pickguard for bongo...

[Cybergimp109]

saw a cool pic of someone putting a picture under a see through pickguard and got wondering where would sell those.. i live in ireland so one in europe would be handy but otherwise anywhere that delivers.

anyone have one or atleast know a site?
thanks

Try Welcome to WDmusic.com

I got a clear one from there before for my old Sterling. They might have Bongo guards. Also, any good luthier should probably be able to cut you out one.

Nice site. thanks

No problem. That's where I got mine. Although I didn't really like the final result, it was a good experience and a good product.

I actually like it - better than just pulling off the pickguard imho and having holes. Can you show a pic of the original pickguard to compare to it?

BTW, another great source for pickguards is Terrapin Guitars. Aside from the available different coloured opaque and ransparent acrylic materials also check out their work with wood and engraved acrylic:

John Polk, the owner, is a really nice and helpful guy and made a couple of custom pickguards for me. He didn't have a template for the SR 4 HH so I had him an original pickguard send. His work was fabulous, very accurate and clean. Something I cannot say for every custom pickguard builder out there... I will definitely order from him again.

whats wrong with it? just dont like how it looks now or the actualll quality of work.. because i would just want a clear plastic guard to p[ut something under so it wouldnt be about the guard more what i put there

Nothing wrong with the quality...my first impression going from the black guard to the clear guard was that I went from cool sunglasses to reading glasses. I just didn't like it as much as I liked the black guard.
