Hi Dave,

 Just to let you know that I received my clear pick guards today. It’s exactly what I wanted.

Thanks for the fast delivery.

 Just thought I’d let you know that your pick guards arrived safe and sound in Singapore. Great dealing with people who aren’t afraid to mail internationally!

 The pick guards are sitting beautifully on my Taylor JSCM and Music Man Axis, and I’m happy to recommend you to anyone outside the USA. Great product and great service.

Dave, I honestly don’t remember how I came about your website initially.  I had purchased a PRS Hollowbody I late in 2002 and wanted protection against scratches.  Your pickguards were the perfect solution.  I recently was gifted with a PRS Custom 22 and scoured my computer’s hard drive for the information on my original purchase.  Lo and behold I found what I was looking for and clicked on the hyperlink directing me straight to your site.  I placed my order so easily through your Pay Pal setup and now eagerly await my new set of pickguards.  By the way, the other pickguard, from my initial purchase resides gracefully on my Ibanez SC-500 nylon electric.  Amazing product!  Thanks again, Dave.

Dave,

I received my clear pick guards in the mail today.  I'm a very happy to be
able to place one on my Breedlove guitar.  I have a master class model
"Northwest" which I have refrained from playing at times to keep it from
getting scratched.  Now I can enjoy playing this guitar with the worry.
Thanks for the great product.

Sincerely,

James Ford - Scappoose, OR

Dave,

We received the Alternative Pickguards this past Saturday. Thanks for the
lightning-fast shipping. Kelsey, my fourteen year old daughter, put one on her new Ibanez. As I stated earlier, she saw the protection the Alternative Pickguard gave my Peavey Wolfgang and she wanted the same for her guitar. Well, now she has it!

I bought one two years ago for my Peavey Wolfgang, and this only after keeping the Wolfie in it's case the previous year. Like a mummy in it's tomb on display in a museum, I would "check on it" but never touch it because I didn't want to harm it. Since putting the Alternative Pickguard on it, my Wolfie now has at least 500 hours playing time WITH NO SCRATCHING, PLAYER WEAR OR ANY TYPE BLEMISHING, ALL BECAUSE I PUT AN ALTERNATIVE PICKGUARD ON IT.

Hi! This is the second set of these I have bought from you. I couldn't be happier with the first set. They are still in brand new condition. GREAT PRODUCT! Thank you very much!

BTW, I just noticed there is no pickguard and through research realize
that this model does not come with a pick guard. do you know why and do
people have them put on?

Yup no pickguard for aesthetic reasons but you have 3
good options well IMHO, 3 options one of them  great.....

A. Taylor will send you a tortoiseshell pickguard for free
B. Taylor will send you a clear pickguard for free            
C. I love the "Alternative pickguard"  its                        
    clear, "clingy" vinyl goes on and off with NO Adhesive.

Protects the guitar when you're playing lasts forever stick on peel off no residue.  Viola!  They come on a card of 2 for only $10 bucks I'll send you to the owner  he's a good  guy. Here's his website tell him that Alan Sokoloski sent you

I received the pickguards today. Great product! I'll be trying it on my
Yairi DY72 12 string. When the auction ends I'll post positive feedback.
Thanks again,

I purchased your product for one of my Taylors, and honestly couldn't be happier. Perfect for my "14" series that had the pick guard removed for the sake of some beautiful bearclaw spruce.

Thanks,

Hello,
   I received the alternative pickguard two days ago and it works great!  I
can say I was a little skeptical at first, but when I tried it, all my
worries went away.  when I received my Taylor about a week ago, I noticed
that it did not include a pickguard, so I would have to restrain myself from
playing it, because I was afraid of any type of scratch or damage on a $1700
guitar.  but since I received the pickguards, I've been playing like I used
to on my older guitars.  Thanks!!

David Lin - Troy, MI

Dave:

Thanks for sending out the pickguards so quickly I just received them today.  I've "installed" it on my Taylor guitar and it looks and works great!  Thanks for a terrific  product. This seems to be a very popular item with the guys on the Taylor Guitar Forum.
 
Thanks again.
