How to install a pickguard on a Fender Stratocaster. Gear Alert !!

[@billyrichardson5431]

Thanks a lot. The other day, I got curious and unscrewed one of the pick-up height adjuster screws. This cleared up my confusion because when I tried to screw it back in, it wasn't staying in position. Thanks.

Going all black on my black strat including pots & pickup covers. Good instructions and a great look, thanks 👋

Sean in newer videos you will see I switched to a mint green pick guard on this guitar. I soaked my pick up covers and knobs in coffee to make them match the paint because they were parchment color. I love it how it is now.

Sharp pencil mark on each pickup works even better

Looks awesome man. I have a white squier and i got bored so i bought a black pickguard too.

I went back to the mint pick guard recently. I want to change the color of the pickup covers and knobs to better match the body and I think Ill be happy with that.

Steve Miller thanks Steven. I actually switched back to the mint green with the 69custom shop pickups. I vintaged the pickup covers and knobs and I’m now real happy with it. No more changes planned for this one hah. Anyway it’s in some of my more recent videos.

At around 13:05 or so the guitar playing sounds like the soundtrack to bulemic sorority girls binge-ing on junk food

Thank you, I'm about to do exactly this, just waiting for it to arrive, will take 3weeks shipping to me, was there any issues with the holes not lining up ? If so what is to be done? Toothpick and wood glue trick and redrill? Looks like you didn't have this issue.

I didn't have any issues with the holes, they lined up.
