Geamala Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I have seen some people talking about pimping out their JTVs. I wanna put a cream pearloid scratch plate on my JTV 69 HSS. I found this Full Compass site that has some on there but they won't ship it to me in Australia. Grrrrr http://www.fullcompass.com/prod/268483-Line-6-30-27-0380-6 Does anyone else know of anybody who makes them? Thanks guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinon2 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 You're unlikely to find any that aren't made by L6. Most places aren't gonna bother mass-producing pick guards for such a niche guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edstar1960 Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I remember one of the original JTV69 owners when they were first launched reported on the old forum that he had found a company that would cut a custom scratch plate for him - all he needed to do was to send them a tracing of his original scratch plate and they said they would produce a new one. I seem to remember that he had done that and that therefore they had the JTV69 template and could therefore produce others for other JTV69 owners as and when requested. I think the company was Greasy Groove - www.greaseygroove.com If you click on their PICKGUARD menu option it states there that they will cut a new pickguard from a tracing of your own one. But it may be worth contacting them to see if they still have the template for the JTV69 custom pick guard requested a couple of years back.

Geamala Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 Yeah I have seen a couple of places online that do cut custom pickguards. I was hoping to not have to send a tracing so this might be good. The only thing is that my JTV69 is HSS. But I will get in touch with greasy groove. Thanks.

ZenBalancer Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Who makes replacement pickguards for JTV? Seems easier on the JTV-59 models according to Pickguard On Jtv 59. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After looking over my emails I noticed that I had already emailed Greasygroove but they have not responded to my email. hmmm.... Rather than going through the dramas of pulling off my pickguard, tracing it and sending it to america I'm wondering if anyone wants to go middleman on this for me? It seems this item already exists http://www.fullcompa...-6-30-27-0380-6 and it'd be great if I could just get it sent over rather than getting something custom made up but they won't ship to Australia (I even bugged them and asked pretty please). I'd be happy to pay someone via paypal to order/purchase the item and then forward it over to me here in Australia. I'd really appreciate the help. Any takers? Thanks in advance guys. Ant.
