Here are two high quality Tele pickguards for your next (and one after next) Tele building project.  I have always preferred the look of 5 hole guards, although if you disagree (and own a drill) these can obviously be converted to 9 holes.  As I also prefer to fix Tele neck pickups direct to the body and dislike seeing adjustment screws on the guard, I'd ordered these items without holes; again, you can drill these easily.

There is copper shielding on the rear of the brown tortoiseshell guard only, and both are quite matte in appearance.  No cracks, scratches, or other snarky defects.

    Is the diameter of the semi-circular cut-out where the control plate fits 32mm or 33 and a gnat's?

    Both measure 32mm; I had these on Teles with both Fender and Gotoh control plates, and the fit was good.

    Glad to hear it.

    I am in the process of tarting up a Squier Standard series Telecaster. Its control plate is Metric, 33mm. I need to determine whether it would be cheaper to find a Squier-sized scratchplate or an Imperial control plate.

    Am I the only person who prefers 5 hole Tele pickguards?  Or is it just the colour of these particular 'guards?  I.E. these are still available bump...
