WD® Custom Pickguard For Single Humbucker, Dual Single Coil Fender® Stratocaster®
This pickguard was designed in the 1970's when many players were removing the single coil bridge pickup and routing the body to install a humbucker in the bridge position.We have included options to modify the pickup cuts for HHS, HSH, or HHH configurations(upcharges apply). This pickguard will only fit genuine Fender® U.S. (post 1963) or Fender® made in Mexico (post 2002) Stratocasters® with two single coils in the neck and middle position, and a standard humbucker in the bridge position located 3/8 inches from a vintage/standard bridge cutout. Please note, if you choose the Floyd Rose® bridge cut on this template it will effect the amount of material between the bridge cut out and the bridge pickup due to the Floyd Rose® bridge's deeper cut. This pickguard uses the same mounting hole pattern as current Fender® Stratocaster® guitars, but is not a current Fender® Stratocaster® production replacement pickguard. For the current Fender® production HSS pickup pattern please see the STQ-200 series pickguard template. It will not fit Squier®, Fender® Japan, Korea, Indonesia or China production instrument. While many manufacturers may make a similar model instrument, this does not mean each pickguard of this type is interchangeable. If the design of your pickguard varies (country of origin, manufactured date, non-Fender® manufactured) from that pictured, you may be required to submit a tracing for a custom order.
If you are unsure about your material selection please Request A Material Sample before finalizing your order.
Please Note: All pickguards are made-to-order and all purchases are processed in the order they are received. Due to order volume and the handcrafted nature of these products it may take up to 2 weeks to process your pickguard order. Choosing an expedited shipping method at checkout will not expedite the processing of your order, only its time in transit.

Accurate Mint Green!
I had purchased a cheaper mint green pickguard that ended up being almost a fluorescent green, so I was nervous that the green might be too bright. I can say that this mint green is an accurate vintage mint green color.
I had previously purchased a custom handmade pickguard from someone for twice this price and I did not want to pay that for another pickguard. The quality of the WD Music pickguard is almost exactly the same as what I had received for that pickguard.
I will definitely be back for pickguard work on any future builds that I do!

Stunning piece of work
I had a HSS Bullet Strat as one of my two electrics (other is a SG). I wanted something that sounded nicer but didn't really feel like buying a new strat so I thought what the hell why not rebuild it. It's a metallic black finish and I'm ordering two new black Seymour Duncan single coil sized humbuckers for the Neck/Middle and a Gold covered full humbucker for the bridge. The gold mirror finish on the guitar is absolutely stunning. Multiple people have told me it's the most beautiful strat they've every seen with the gold and black detail. All I need now is a really dark ebony neck with gold frets!
