Mr B Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 Q: Will the pickguard from a Casino fit on a standard Dot? What' I'm looking at is the pickguard on this guitar; http://cgi.ebay.com/Epiphone-ES-335-Electric-Guitar-Black_W0QQitemZ320351594975QQihZ011QQcategoryZ33037QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem I like the shape of that better, and if it'll fit (even if I have to mod it a bit with a dremel/hand file) I'd like to swap one on my Dot. Of course, I'd need one in black, not white.... Thanks in advance! Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ron G Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 No, it will not fit. Look at the size of the area above the neck pickup. I had a pickguard custom made for my Dot Studio - I sent a tracing to the maker for proper fit because there can even be minor differences in humbucker mounting rings. Mine is the short 335 style and I agree that it's better looking than the Epi Dot/Sheraton shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like I'll be making a custom one myself... 5 ply (b/w/b/w/B) pickguard blanks don't run too much. And if I get amitious I can cut a matching 5 ply TRC. Thanks Ron. :D B.
