I didn’t! The issue is that I don’t have an original pickguard. There isn’t one. Whatever I do will be custom. I was going to make a paper template using a tele guard (which works great for about half of what I need) plus some extra bits drawn with a french curve then have ago at cutting it out with a dremmel. Folly you reckon?

Did you know that particular seller routs and bevels guards at really quite a nice price if you send him the old one as a template? You can easily ask him to leave out a couple of pickup holes. In my limited experience, trying for a properly neat job at home with fretsaw, files and sandpaper is low on fun.
