removable wooden pickguard
dear all,
i love the clean look of a guitar without pickguard in that i got it removed asap after collecting my 314ce koa. but now i've come to appreciate how taylor's contour pickguard looks and complements the contours of the headstock, bridge and trc... i was going thru bill nichols' website when i was searching for info about the custom trc that i saw a beautiful cocobolo pickguard. that got me thinking of means of attaching a wooden pickguard that could be easily removed, to satisfy my both liking the pickguard on and off... i was thinking of gluing (or double-side taping) the wooden pickguard to one of them ds custom's static pickguards... but i thought that if the bottom side of the wooden pickguard has a gloss finish, then it could easily attach to the static pickguard and then on to the guitar itself... any thots?? bill: i wonder if you could gloss finish the the pickguard?? regards

Hmmm.. interesting idea - Possibly the PG may be a bit too heavy to stay on though through static alone - It'd be worth a try though with a similar piece of wood though before you order one through Bill!
He does indeed do gloss finishes. His website has 1 or two PG's in gloss

Bolts and wingnuts???
Velcro??? Rubber Cement??? Sorry, nothing to really offer here. Use the above methods at your own risk.

I was thinking drywall screws. That would complement the neck attachment on the Baby and Big Baby.
