Yes, I have thought about this too, but I don’t know anybody who would rip his pickguard and lend it to me (and I don’t blame them).
My Ibanez has a 25 ½ “ scale, but I was not quite sure about the Strat. Thanks to you, now I know.
I guess I’ll have to ask my local music store if they could provide me with an original Strat pickguard, for a day or two.
But still,,,, if anyone out there has a 1:1 drawing of an original Strat pickguard, I would like to have a copy.
