The first pickguard I produced was for a Gibson ES-295 Floral Pickguard. This pickguard was reproduced from an 1952
original ES-295 Pickguard. It was professionally hand crafted to produce a high
quality reproduction that duplicated the shape, mounting holes, edge contour,
floral decal and aged color. I even include the top mounting spacer just
like the one from my ES-295.
I started producing this pickguard after I
was quoted $450.00 by a pickguard company to make one for my 1957 ES-295.
There was an original pickguard listed on E-Bay for $499.99 and there was a
1958 previously was listed at $999.99 If you want a 58' pickguard for
humbucking pickups, I now have that availble. I also produce a ES-175 Pickguard which is pretty
much the same thing. With only 1770 of these guitars made from 1952 to 1958,
missing guards are almost impossible find. And, at a reasonable price.
I've
sold about 50 of these pickguards with satisfied customers. I also produce
these in many different floral & color schemes.
They will also fit ES-175's ES135's &
ES-225's with P-90 pickups if your looking for something different. They will
not fit ES-295 Epiphones as they are sized and shaped differently. If you need
one for an Epiphone, I now have them available.

I just finished an assortment of pickguards that fit Gibson ES-295's and Les Paul's in both right and left hand configurations. Both ES-295 and Les Paul pickguards are offered in vintage and cream reissue colors.
I only make these up a few at a time so I have a limited supply. Also, I just added Gibson ES-175 Humbucking Pickguards in both cream or Black and Epiphone ES-295 & Casino Pickguards. Your choice of colors.
When you order your pickguard, if possible please include a tracing of your existing pickguard so I can insure an accurate fit.
I also do custom pickguards in any patterns, material and color. Send me a tracing or the actual pickguard and I can usually
produce one in about a week.
