EagleMoon Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Be careful ordering from WD Music. I've heard of people getting them and they were cut poorly. Usually leaving a gap between the control plate and the guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleMoon Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 I know the Geddy pickguards aren't the same as the MIA or MIM Standards. I've had four different Geddy Lee basses over the years but never bought a different pickguard for the ones I had although I did play it for a while without the pickguard and it looked cool. This place gets good reviews... http://www.terrapinisland.com/chitzenitza/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=12&products_id=42 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
