Default Custom Pickguard

I want to replace the white plastic pickguard on my Rick with a clear maple guard. Does anyone have any experience or references as to where I can have one fashioned?

Thanks...

By clear maple do you mean maple you can see through or maple without knots?

Pattern bit on a router with a mdf pattern should make one quick if you have the wood.

I’m sorry, I meant no stain, simply nitro over the wood.
