Anyone got a scrap of black pick guard ?

Post by StrummersOfThunder »

I need a small rectangle of 2mm Pick guard material to make a dodgey jack plate for a thunderbird bass that had its jack ripped out and mahogany mangled
Tried a few designs but I landed on a shape a bit like the centre rectangle body profile
Prob need a piece of guard about 4cm x 10 cm
Thanks !

Strummers has a special genius at the art of the typo. I've learned to translate most of them. :rofl:
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
