So while im waiting for my TL-1 mirror pickguard to arrive ive got the guitar bug again and am looking for things to fix.
Over he last few years my pickguard has faded badly and is now gold which looks terrible.

So one of my original mistakes, another tiger pickguard, which i had ditched , was repurposed for my new design. After awhile i hated my pickguard design and was dying to change it. Ive shortened it and am happy with it. I just have a few body repairs to do where the screws go.
