Dear Peter,
It's beautiful. When next you are willing to experiment with this kind of color, I will also buy, in addition to this one that I've already bought, another orange pickguard in flamed or curly maple. Okay?
Thanks again for your patience and your hard work.
All the best, Chris G.

The pickguards arrived today, that was pretty quick! They look great! I'll let you know how the installation goes and hopefully have some pictures soon. Thanks again!

Peter,
Please find attached a picture I took this afternoon of my Telecaster with the last item of this dream guitar project in place, its Gilroy Pick Guard. The new pick guard is excellent in all respects; construction, machining, finish, and fit. I've worked on guitars for about thirty years now and this is as close as you can get to perfect with wood being converted from a tree, into something else, by humans.
Just for fun, and so you know who your pick guard is playing with:
Fender "Custom Shop Designed" Baja Player Classic Telecaster in Blond.
Kluson/Tone Pros upgrade vintage style tuning machines.
Callaham Stainless Steel T-Bridge with upgrade compensated saddles and Callaham S.S. Round String Tree.
Gotoh Large Diameter nickel strap buttons (with custom cut leather washers, a signature touch of mine).
SoZo Vintage hand wound Mustard Caps in the Tone circuit.
Thank you very much for the fine craftsmanship, and do keep up the good work!

Hi Peter,
I received the pickguard . . . It's the most beautiful pickguard I've seen in my life!
Really.
You had asked for a picture of the pickguard on my ‘52 reissue Tele. Well, I have something that may be even better.
You can see some nice shots of my Gilroy Guitars pickguard in our new Black Cat OD-1 video - Here’s the link -

Hey Pete,
I could not be happier with this pickguard! The finish is flawless and it looks absolutely amazing. It has completely changed the look of my guitar. I highly recommend this to anyone who wishes to individualise their guitar.

Peter,
I received the pickguard today. It is beautiful. I had a Strat already picked out for it, but now I can't decide which one to put it on.
I may be ordering another one soon.
Thanks.

The pickguard was waiting for me as I arrived home today.
My goodness - it's absolutely beautiful!
I simply held it in my hands to the light for several moments and admired it from every angle. I am more than pleased with my purchase and the fine craftsmanship that went into it.
Top marks all around - a really great transaction.

THE GREATEST PICKGUARD A GUY COULD GET!
Thanks Peter,
I have to say that the pickguard is perfect for the guitar, which was concieved as an improvement over anything available from ******. It has a maple over alder tone-chambered body, straight-pull Steinberger tuners, 22 jumbo fret super curly maple/pao ferro neck, John Suhr pickups w/hum cancelling circuit and Kahler tremolo. Now with the addition of your pickguard it looks as good as it plays and sounds. Thank you Sir, best regards.

Hello again,
The pickguards have arrived and I was very pleased with both guards and the packing. I have mounted BK-1 and can already tell that this has been a labour of love for you. The fit is perfect and the luster is deep and rich. I have enclosed photos of the "Tuxedo", happy to be back.
Many thank-you's for your wonderful efforts.

Peter,
Check it out! Wow what an awesome look. It goes well with the maple binding and rosette.
I really appreciate all the work you put into this. I love it.
I did manage to wait about an hour since it arrived before I installed it - it was a breeze and went on perfectly.
Thanks again,
Jeff J. - NC - USA
