    Hey!
    I’m having the hardest time finding a replacement pickguard for my Epiphone Explorer. They have so many guitar ones but no bass ones anywhere. If anyone knows where to get one please let me know!
    Thank you :)

    Might be easiest to have one made custom. Tony at Pickguardian can do that for you for not too steep a price.

    I just ordered from chandler music/planet pickguard. They are also a subcontractor for musicman so they've been around, and have a reputation.

    The only drawback is they are a small family owned operation so it'll be a couple weeks before they make mine due to a post holiday delay.

    From their website:
    "All Explorer guards - both Gibson USA made and
    imported Epiphone Models
    require a tracing of the
    original or the original guard itself be sent
    for duplication
