Historic Pickgaurd Options?

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for an alternative to the pinkish cream colour of the original Gibson Historic pickgaurd and pickup rings for my goldtop. A normal cream colour would look so much better, but I need to be sure that the replacement parts fit well, and are the same shape as the Gibson originals.

 

I think the Historic guard is a different shape to later Les Paul models, I know that the pickup rings are. Obviously, I will keep the original parts to pass onto the next owner.

 

Does anyone know of a good quality brand that is a nice cream, and fits?

Looking at the 2015 Historic '59 Reissue specifications, it states that the 'True Historic Plastics have been revised. If the pictures can be believed, the cream plastic looks a better colour, it looks a real improvement!

 

looking at the part numbers for the pickguard and pickup rings on the Historic '59 page, the part numbers they give are different to the part numbers on the online shop. How do you order these part numbers if they are not listed in the parts section on Gibson's site?
