Musiclily11 Hole Guitar Stratocaster Pickguard for Fender American/Mexican Made Strat Standard Modern Style Parts,4 Ply White Pearl

I'm very pleased with this purchase. It fit my MIM 2004 strat perfectly. Before buying I made sure the measurements shown matched my guitar. I bought the 3ply cream to replace a 3ply white. Think it looks great on the sunburst body. Goes well with my original white pickups and knobs. Very easy to install. Has shielding on back. Keep the 2 ply plastic covering on while installing. Some have complained the screws mushroom above the guard when installed. I used my original screws and they were flush with the guard. This is probably because I replaced a 3ply with another. Take note of that before you buy. Saved me a lot of money vs a fender pickguard.

I build out Fender and Squier guitars, mostly Stratocasters, as a hobby. Usually I "rescue" abused and neglected instruments from pawn shops for cheap, then I rebuild them to specifications far beyond their original factory condition.The pickguards on these guitars are usually damaged and have to be replaced... and that can get expensive, so I searched Chinese manufacturers on Amazon for a lower-priced source. Unfortunately, I learned through trial and error that most Chinese Strat pickguards are junk. They're thin, cheap feeling and often have non-standard hole placement.The Musiclily pickguards are an entirely different story. I have purchased several of these Strat pickguards, both solid and pearl colors, and have been very pleased. First of all, the Musiclily pickguards are as good as (and occasionally better) than the original manufacturer's products. For example: The typical Squier solid color pickguard is 2.0mm thick and the Squier pearl pickguard is 2.3mm. The "standard" American and Mexican OEM pickguards are about 2.3mm thick and the pearls are about 2.45mm. The solid color Musiclily pickguards are 2.3mm and the pearls are 2.5mm.The Musiclily pickguards are cleanly cut and beveled with no ragged edges. They are fully shielded, covering both the pickups and the controls. The solid color pickups are three layers (i.e. black/white/black) and the pearl and tortoise shells are four layers (white/black/white/pearl). They also come with two layers of protective plastic on top to prevent shop/installation damage.My only complaint regarding this pickguard is that the user must cut out the parts of the aluminum shielding that cover the holes for the pots and the switch. It is a hassle to trim these parts with a hobby knife, but the price differential more than compensates for the inconvenience.I have tested the Musiclily Strat pickguards and found that they are fully compatible with American and Mexican Stratocasters, as well as many Squier models. I have placed them on the following guitars without having to drill or modify in any way: Fender American Standard, Fender Mexican Standard, Chinese Squier SE and a vintage Japanese model. It will NOT fit on a Korean Strat or a few other Squier models.See the attached photos of a my "All Musiclily" Chinese Squier Stratocaster SE with a Musiclily tortoise shell pickguard with Musiclily Railblaster pickups, 250k pots, five-way switch, locking tuners and Strat knobs. It plays great and only cost me about $110, including the purchase of the guitar at the pawn shop and all the Musiclily components.

I bought this for my son's Strat. Easy fit with no issues. The only complain that I have is that it seems to scratch easier that a Fender. I polished after the install and the surface started to scratch. It is still a good value for the price.

I rescued a black Squire Strat made in Indonesia (SN# ICS11xxxxxx) from the pound in perfectly new condition for $65, with all shots, but not spayed or neutered. I was astonished with the workmanship/quality of this instrument after I dressed out the whole guitar, so I decided to go ahead and invest and install a nicer looking pick-guard.1) It took 4 days for my order to come.2) The quality is right on par with the Fender-brand pick-guards I have on my other two Fender Stratocasters. As well as extras I have bought in the past.3) The cream color I chose looks just gorgeous, all the cuts and holes, bevels, and edges are really done very well.4) It is an exact replacement, no modifications necessary, for the pick-guards on both my 1974, and my 2014 American Standard.5) I had to drill 1 hole (the one just below the bottom tone knob,) to fit the Squire Strat mentioned above. (Apparently, the Squire builders moved just this one screw hole for some unknown reason.)I definitely recommend this product, and will only be disappointed if the creme backplate I also ordered (which still has not arrived) from them doesn't match this pick-guard very closely.And, if you permit me to digress for one paragraph... I had some old "noiseless" Dimarzio HS-3 pickups laying around, so the new pound puppy got some nice new pups.Anyway, 5 stars, well done!

I ordered this pickguard as a replacement for my MIM strat. It's a solid guard at a fraction of brand prices. All the holes lined up perfectly and it looks great. I will be buying all my pickguards from Musiclily from now on.

exactly as described, fit nicely on my Squire. Comes with trim screws and grounding tape on the back. Definitely will be buying again from my next guitar build

Good product. Thank you.

Overall, it's a decent pickguard and a good value for the money. I installed it on a Squier Classic Vibe 60's Strat. I was under the impression these used pretty standard parts/etc and should fit. And it does fit for the most part. 10/11 screw holes are bang on; one is very far off. The top middle hole is about a half inch from where the stock hole location was. I had to drill a new hole. The tremolo cutout is off-center and required some shaving to fit properly. Finally, the pickup screw holes were not countersunk. Not sure if this is standard or not, but it was a quick fix.Overall, it's good for the money.

I've shown my guitar to maybe 4 people. They all commented on the wicked pickguard.

I saw a review that said it’s better to go with ivory if you’re looking for the classic pale mint green colour that Fender has. Absolutely spot on. The screws line up perfectly too. You do get a spare set of 12 screws with the pickguard, but the OEM screws will do fine. The silver foil wasn’t cut out for all the holes, so be mindful of that. It isn’t difficult at all. All in all, great buy!

Passgenau für meine Stratocaster.Gute Qualität und sieht top aus.

todo muy bien, rápido y muy buen articulo.La guitarra parece otra.Un saludo

Great product, fast delivery
