I replaced the plastic 'aged' pickguard on my new (9/2021) j. Mascis Telecaster - Looked a bit cheap to me. This baby slid right in with just a little loosening of the strings. All the holes lined-up perfectly. Added so much quality. It obviously is heavier than the plastic, but worth it for me.
Bought this to get the full chome look. Put this on a USA 1990 Telecaster. There is an overlap between the volume/pickup selector plate and the scratch plate. I lifted the pickup selector plate and put the scratch plate sitting under it, but it still looks untidy.
