Musiclily Pro Pre-wired SSS Pickguard with Artec Alnico 5 Single Coil Pickups for ST Style Electric Guitar - 4-Ply Aged White Pearl | Perfect for Blues, Rock & Vintage Tone Upgrades

DO NOT HESITATE. I have a partscaster that I took the pickups and electronics out of to use in another Strat that I wanted to upgrade. I was gonna sell the empty body and neck but it’s just too great of a player to let go. I really didn’t want to put a lot of money into it. I see what these name brand loaded guards go for and was blown away at how expensive they have become. Just wasn’t worth it for me. I saw this MUSICLILLY loaded guard on Amazon and it looked like a good quality unit at less then half the price of a Fender or these other companies that see themselves as high end. I’ve had them all. They are not. They are good, some are great but they are all expensive. After receiving this Musiclilly loaded guard, I was stunned. The packaging, the clear and easy instructions for install and the quality of the components are way beyond what I expected. Cloth wiring, real Alnico magnets in pickups, full size responsive potentiometers and high quality orange caps, not to mention the extra sets of covers, knobs and plastics they send you in case you want to change the color scheme. No one else does that. I ordered a cream guard with aged plastics. Looks awesome and real. They send you a full set of black knobs and covers and white knobs and covers. No one else sends you extra parts. All the parts and screws were well packaged and easy to install. Pickguard and back trem cover all fit perfectly and holes lined up flawlessly. I’ve used Musiclilly for other parts over the years and they are usually a very good product. This is a GREAT product and I will look at them first going forward. Tone and volume pots are very responsive and give you almost full tonal control. The bridge is wired to the tone control which I usually have to do myself on a Fender guard or other more known brand loaded guard. I couldn’t have been more satisfied and excited about the new life this thing injected into an old Partscaster I thought I was done with. AWESOME.
