Armstrong Music UK made USA Telecaster humbucker bakelite pickguard
Please use the tabs below to read through the information about this product.
About
I ordered this pickguard to be made by the good people at Armstrong Music, for an in house job, but it didn't quite suit so went in another direction. I thought I'd pop it up on my site at a discounted price instead in case it helps anyone.
It is made to fit USA Fender Telecaster models with 8 mounting screw holes. It has a cutout for a neck position humbucker (covered), and is made from a quality, genuine phenolic bakelite material which is 2mm thick and it doesn't have an outer bevel. So it's superb for that vintage look, or maybe perfect for a Micawbr Tele tribute project!
Please note that this pickguard will only fit genuine Fender Telecaster with a standard humbucker route and eight mounting holes. This pickguard will not fit a Squier or other imported Fender instruments and is NOT compatible with the new Fender Blacktop series Telecaster due to the differences in the cutout for the bridge. This will also not fit the Telecaster American Performer model. These all come with height adjustment holes drilled for the neck pickups.
Made from genuine paper phenolic bakelite measuring 2mm thick and does not have any outer bevel around the edge of the pickguard.
It is brand new, un-fitted and still has the protective film on the material (as shown in the photos).
