So I finally received all the pieces:
- Toneriders (vintage plus) / Pickguard, push/pull pot, orange cap 0.22, and tusq-nut.
Now I put everything together aaaand,.. I'm in two minds:
- It's a shame to cover up the veneer with a pickguard
- Yet, it would also be a shame not to use the tone riders just because of that.
In the picture you can see: 1. how it was (with GFS goldfoil neck), 2. How I can use an (ugly) black ring to mount the tele pickup, 3. fit the pickguard.
I am thinking to mount the pickguard using double-sided thin tape, chop the gold screws and glue them to the pickguard, this way I can always remove the pickguard without damaging the top.
Anyone done something like this before?
It actually really is an in-between solution to push on whilst I make up my mind
