Hi All,

So my UK II parts search seems to have become a little bit of a fixation for me...

The two parts are the plastic bridge cover (no leads as of yet) and a pickguard. I wrote to custompickguards@wdmusic.com who told me that I need to provide them with a tracing of the said pickguard (which I don't have) if I want them to make me a replacement.

Can anyone help provide me with a tracing for their own UK II pickguard? It would be most helpful!
Or better still, if anyone has one they wish to part with...

All the best

M

He might be persuaded to make a tracing for you.

I hate to be the bearer of bad new, but once you get the pickguard, you'll need the mounting bracket as well. I may actually have one.

I found a pick online that shows the bracket.

Location: 6 String Ranch		Those brackets came from the Harmony auction. Once we ran out we stopped putting on pickguards. I think they look better without but what do I know, I just ran a gas station for airplanes.

I think they have a certain "retro" quality with the pickguard on and really like the idea of having one, for completeness sake. PMs sent...

Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains		Miles' photo looks exactly like mine. I'll trace out the design and send it to Merlin.

Location: The Great Pacific Northwest		The Black model always seems to look good with or without the pickguard. The other colors somewhat depend on my mood. It really gives the guitar a whole different vibe.
