vintage fender telecaster pickguards

[holyshroud]

ok, so i have a vintage american fender tele and i want a white pickguard. and if anyone has vintage, you know the pcikguard screws only have 5 holes as apposed to the new ones which have 8. i'm struggling to find a white 5 hole one and was wondering if they are still available to buy. I'm from Ottawa, Ontario and any help would be amazing. keep in mind i have searched a lot of onine sites, guitar shops, etc and no luck. thanks

xo.

You'd probably have to order one,or do what I did for my '63 Tele, I bought a slab of pickgaurd material from StewMac and made my own.--Bone.

you can custom order them from wd (you just say 5 hole instead of 8, no extra charge) or you can get them from boutique manufacturers like callaham.

I, myself, HATE wd. They have screwed up too many of my orders, and they are slow. but its a definate option
