Replacement Pickguards

An alternate option would be to go to https://gig.ink/

Tim produced a custom pick guard for me using the first deep field image from the JWST. It’s beautiful. You can specify any image you like, so a personal photograph would not be a problem.

He could also produce a completely clear pick guard.

Tim is U.K. based.

Sounds like a great option.

I think I’ve said this before, but I love this pickguard!

I’m not super savvy on this stuff, but I wonder if there’s a place online where people might be sharing free pickguard specs for 3D printing. I know there’s a lot you can find online now, and then you can take it to a printer and make it out of whatever you want. Might be an option if you have an idea you can’t find anywhere else.

This site is just awesome! I love how you can select your bass and see how the pickguard would look on it. Bookmarking in case I ever want to replace mine. :slight_smile:

That would be very helpful!

Maybe there’s a 3D-printing nerd on here that knows. I don’t even know what the websites are where people share schematics (is that even what they’re called?), but I know they exist. :slight_smile:

Usually, it’s this: Search Thingiverse - Thingiverse

But for me it was not useful…

He didn’t have a Dingwall Combustion template. I sent him mine to use and I what I got back was perfect! It’s a very easy way to change the look of your bass - I often search through the JWST images to see if there is anything else that takes my fancy!

Anyone know if Fender P bass pickguards will also fit Sire Marcus Miller P series Basses?
