Please be sure to let us know where each tone cap goes if selecting different values. If selecting higher output pickups, be advised the Magic Cap will not work normally.

Browse additional Add-Ons, like Output Jacks, Tremolo Covers, Modifications, and more. The Baseplate and Volume Kit can add tonal functionality to your Prewired Pickguard.

To speed up your pickguard, please include any additional information here. If you have selected more than one Tone Cap, let us know where each value goes.

Notice

Due to the nature of Raw Nickel, Raw Nickel may contain slight cosemetic defects or abrasions.

Recommendation:

We recommend using 2-Conductor With Shield Lead when purchasing a single pickup. 2-Conductor lead allows you to reverse the phase should you have phase issues. Learn About Lead Choice

Note:
Note:

While we do our best to match double-white bobbins, there may be subtle differences in color due to different dye lots from the manufacturer.

Upgrade To A Prewired Pickguard

Heads Up!

We may make minor changes to your order to optimize your pickguard's wiring with your pickup selection. However, we will not make any drastic changes without your consent.

Prewired Strat Pickguard FAQ's

Product FAQ's

People frequently ask these questions about our Prewired Strat Pickguard. If you have a question that you don't see listed here, click "Ask" in the Quick Links section above.

  • Can I return my pickguard?

    No. Your pickguard is completely custom-built for you, so we cannot accept returns.

  • What warranty applies to the pickguard?

    10 Years on our Pickups, 1 Year on electronics, parts, and pots.

  • What does the baseplate do?

    The Baseplate adds a touch of power and output to the Bridge pickup. This mod is removable and is only available on certain models.

  • What does the Bright Switch mod do?

    The Bright Switch modification adds a bit of clarity, brightness and output when you pull up on the push-pull modification. This mod only affects pickups installed with 250K pots, so it won’t work on our Steel Pole 43’s and High Outputs.

  • What does the Volume Kit do?

    The Volume Kit (or Treble Bleed circuit) prevents your tone from getting darker when you roll your volume down.

  • Does my Pickguard come with Hardware?

    Yes! We ship all pickguards with the screws needed to install your pickguard.

  • Do you sell Matching Backplates (Tremolo cover)?

    Yes, we do! Simply check “Add matching backplate” in the “Options & Upgrades” box.

  • Can I send you my pickguard to wire up?

    Yes, you can! Order a Prewired Pickguard from us and let us know in the “Notes” field that you are sending us a Pickguard. Don’t select Tortoiseshell / Pearloid options as they are more expensive. Reference your invoice number on the new pickguard you send to us. Please note, you do not get a refund if you send your own pickguard in.

  • Since we cannot guarantee color matching, we cannot provide a return to you if you are unhappy with the color matching of our Prewired Strat Pickguard.
HARNESSES:
