tweed2 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Welcome to the forum. I've always had good luck in the past, with Terrapin Guitars, http://www.terrapinguitars.com/. I've purchased 8-10 guards from John (and Mary), very nice work. Recently though, I've had a few made by a guy I found on the "bay". He did my black Sorrento Reissue replacement. He also made a replacement guard for my Texan reissue, that fit perfectly. I pulled the stock one and sent it to him. He used it as a template and returned it with the new, black one. Great communication, low prices, quick turn around. Mike (caphob, on the bay) might be able to help you out. C-rocker.com. Tell him Pat sent you. P.S, Something I've learned over the years on shipping pick guards, back and forth. I put them in a magazine, for protection, then sent it USPS Media Mail (so that technically, I'm playing by the rules ,), which is cheaper and safer than Parcel Post. Works great.

Collum170 Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 Pickguardian doesn't seem to have a section for epiphones. I left a message to terrapinguitars about it. I noticed GreasyGroove sells a bunch of pickguards, but they're shipping from Canada. It would be $40 for a full sized cream pickguard. Does anyone know if terrapin would be cheaper?

tweed2 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 About the same, unless it's a '61 reissue style, that'll be less. If you go to their website, you can print out full sized pattern to see what fits and what needs to be changed. They have 3 different styles.

Pickgurdian's website isn't very good. You'll want to email him. He's very helpful and makes great quality stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcwillow777 Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 I've had http://www.terrapinguitars.com/ make me a few pick guards. He isn't the cheapest guy on the block, but he does very good work. I had him make one for my Dot and Sheraton and they came out great. The Dot is in my Avatar. He did need my original pick guards to use as a template to make sure the new ones fit around the pickups right. They fit like a glove, no trimming need on my part. I also had him design one for a Strat that I made. It came out very nice. His communication is great, we where in contact with each other several times until I decided on this design. There used to be someone here on the forum that did pick guards too, but I think he got sick and isn't doing them any more. Here is the one terrapinguitars did for my Strat.
