Product details
An 8-hole Telecaster scratchplate with humbucker routing at the neck, designed to fit most USA, Mexican and Squier Telecasters. It's a straight swap for your existing pickguard and opens the door to a fatter neck tone.
Modelled on the modern 1969-style pickguard, it uses 8 fixing screw holes for a secure, flush fit. The neck position is routed for a humbucker, and the added pickup mounting holes let you adjust neck pickup height without taking the scratchplate off.
Available in a wide range of colours in either single-ply or 3-ply, it's a solid choice for custom builds, upgrades or straight replacements.
