Does anyone here cut pickguards from templates?

fretfinder

As above, I'm looking to get a pickguard cut. I've got the template that needs to be copied, as it's a non standard shape. Please PM me if you could help or know someone who could. Many thanks.

saw some vintage 59 LP pickguards for sale on Mark's Guitar Loft the other day - NOS or aged - if that helps

Many thanks Mark I'll take a look. I think I need one cut to non-standard size though. 

Does anyone on here cut pickguards from
templates?

I would also like to know, I could do with one for a 2010 LP junior - bought a few cheapo ones from china but guess what.. they don't fit!! Black on black just isn't cutting it...

You could definitely get one from Sims Custom, but they're not cheap.  And that's an understatement.

Feline may be able to help, I think.

is it a paper template? or drawing?

I have a laser cutter and milling machine, so I may be able to help you out if the info you provide is good

Thanks fellas & yes @fretfinder I can certainly help - I can cut a plate to any shape but I only work in single ply & essentially the beauty of my plates is that they can have any image on - from subtle or solid colours to in-yer-face - so please drop me a PM if this piques your interest; but if you're after a 'traditional' multi-ply plate I hear nothing but good things about Jacks Instrument Services in Manchester . . .
