Supersonic Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 My older brother has a newer model Sheraton II and apparently he wants to change the pickguard to one that doesn't have the "second screw showing"? The screw closest to bridge pickup like Epi's have, if that makes any sense? I told him he would probably have to get a new mounting bracket like Gibson's have, but I have no knowledge about different pickguard brackets and such so I told him I would ask about it on the trusty old Epi forum. So please feel free share any info you guys might have about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hungrycat Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Yeah, he'll have to get a Gibson style one. They can be sourced for places like Allparts and StewMac. Basically instead of a screw through the top of it, it has a plastic piece that has to be glued to the underside of the pickguard, that you thread the bracket into.

Fringe Lunatic Posted December 18, 2010 Share Posted December 18, 2010 You can even go the no-screw route by using 3M double-sided mounting tape for the top of the pickguard. It's been working nicely on my Dot for over 2 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersonic Posted December 18, 2010 Author Share Posted December 18, 2010 Thanks guys. I found THIS ONE at All Parts. Think it will fit on an Epi? I'm thinking that would make a pretty cool Christmas present. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also he'll need a new pickguard, unless he wants one with a hole in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
