Yep DD, the cutdown pickguard looks like it will work a treat.

For my Tuff Dog pickguard I cut it down with a coping saw with a very fine blade and then used the Ozito ( Dremel clone ) drum sander to clean it up and do the bevel, easy done but practice on the offcut first to get the pressure and movement speed right.
