Its on its way i just bought a Epiphone ES 175 D 2010 . The guitar is real nice , but it doesn't have the e on the pick guard. where can i buy some of them i looked on e-bay but they want 26 bucks for one .

I added one to my Dot's pickguard, which is a custom job made to look more like that of a Gibby 335's pickguard.

I love the Epiphone brand though, so I slapped that E on.

Also goes great with my guit's black and silver theme.

You want the raised one or a foil one? If silver foil, try Axetreme. If gold foil, let me know (PM me), I still have a few left. If you want the raised one, eBay. you may have to wait a bit, but they go as low as $15.

Yep, all my chrome ones come from them, Nobody seems to make gold ones, and I wanted a couple for the gold hardware Epi's I have, so I had a couple of dozen made. It's the little things.....

Thanks. It's going thru a pickup change, right now. I'm looking forward to the results.

My opinion for what it's worth?

 

The "E" on everything Epi EXCEPT the Epi version of the 175.

I've gone through a lot of these, so I can't remember, did we ever get you taken care of?

It seems that every Epi I have purchased has had a foil "E" that is coming off. First, I clean the guard and the back of the "E" with lighter fluid. Then I give the "E" a fairly heavy coat of 3M spray adhesive, let it dry a bit then stick it down. Mine that I have done don't come off.
