  1. There are a couple types of pickgurds. The tortoise ones are not the ones that are injection molded. The ones I mold for Gibson are going to be translucent and solid in color. They will be the ones that are colorfilled and not printed on the outside.
  2. I saw the picture but I didn't look close. It looks like a drill press vice bolted to a bowling ball sitting inside a small tire. Talk about ingenuity!
  3. Yes, they are injection molded. I asked Gibson and I think it's ok to say this. I mold parts for Gibson. That being said, please, don't anyone even think about trying to get me to sell to them directly. I just ran several Hummingbird pickguards. The engraving is in the mold and somewhere on this site is a picture of the lady that hand paints them. I call that color filling ( I also do laser engraving) and we color fill all the time.
  4. I'm new here so I expect to be flamed... The J-200 and the Hummingbird pickguards are injection molded for the TV models. I do not know how they were done in the past but I sure know how they are done now.
  5. It's nice to see knowledgable people. I hope to learn from you all. Another thing to look at is the neck binding, it's molded from a solid piece on a real Montana made J200. This one looks like binding overlapped.
  6. So, how does this work? Is it just for SirNed or for everyone to read?

  7. Aren't they injection molded?
