I do, do custom orders, but I do not do sheets. What did you have in mind?

Wow, its been a long time since I have last been on here, but a lot has changed. I have a website now. Stop on by and say hi http://spitfiretortoiseshellpickguards.wordpress.com/

Hey everyone I am selling a Jaguar guard. Its up on ebay right now.

Wasn't there someone on Offset that was scanning and printing original tort onto acetate or the like and layering it on a plain guard ?

Not you ?

They look great btw.
Yes there was a guy doing that and no it wasn't me. I guess it just wasn't working like he wanted and he gave up I think. He got ...

They look very nice indeed, do you make the tort and stick it on top of already made white guard material ?
What sort of price will you be charging? I am fully torted up with vintage guards but would be interested if I had some modern tort. Do you have the process protected? maybe fender custom ...

I made it... 25 posts!!!!!

Alright Im back. Nicely said guys. Yes okay I dont mind being over here in the "whore house," whatever. So I just want the world to be torted. So please join me. Throw out your feedback, your ideas, your suggestions, and a tort that you would like to see. I have currently ...

You know my first guitar was a super cheap Squire Affinity series and to be quite honest with you it was actually a pretty solid good guitar. The neck actually felt pretty good and never had a problem with anything else. The pickups were the only thing kind of different. They are a little more dull ...

A Strat-Jag

Ahh found you. Very cool man. That would look good with a white pickguard. What color are you thinking? Or you know maybe even a dark tortoise. Whatcha thinking?

Yeah those are good. Its probably best to update to whats around. Not easy finding those old rare parts. Cool.

Post a link buddy cant wait to see it.

Well looks great man that looks really cool. Im a fan.

Well you got yourself a good looking guitar. If you are ever in the need of vintage looking tort let me know.

Dont forget to throw on a nice vintage looking tortoise shell pick guard on there. I love my Sunburst with red tort Jazz bass. looks great.

Worst case scenario you could just get yourself some new switches for a couple bucks. Usually they come with the screws too. I was looking for ya and didn't seem to find anything. You might want to look around on Allparts and EYGuitarMusic.com.

HNB man Im digging your green Jag there. You think that would look good with a deep dark burgundy tort? Maybe not bright red, but a dark red. I love your Lack Placid Blue too. Nice paint jobs.

It looks like Custom Shop is sticking their greedy little hands into everything now-a-days. We were better off without you Custom Shop. You're just too darn expensive.

Custom shop is like losing our best friend(Fender) to his' high maintenance girlfriend(CustomShop).

HNB your paint job looks really good. I hope it works out for you guys. Aren't most finishes a minimum of a week or two to cure and sometimes a month for full cure?

Thanks, yeah it does take awhile to cure. :) Waiting is the hard part, but you can't really get around it. :D
Oh I totally know ...

I did a full routing job for my Strat-Jag project with a Dremel rotary tool. These are not that expensive and you can use them with almost anything. I loved it.

See my project here.
