Location: Maryland, USA | Hey all, I used to post on this site fairly often; but I've been in and out how often I play my Ovation. However, I was interested in replacing the pickguard for it, as the original owner used a jigsaw to make room for a humbucker. The pickguard has two soapbar pickups and "Viper" engraved on it. Is it possible to call the mothership for a replacement? I don't really mind the cost ($100 would start getting excessive though). Thanks all!! |

You might want to check with "Mr. Ovation" here on the board. He has had many pickguards for sale in the past.
