The lovely "hump" guard was used on Epiphone's highest models. With a vintage correct 3 layers of hand-laid binding and a beautiful firestripe-style translucent celluloid, this guard will bring back the glory of your old Epi. Or make your recent Masterbilt DeLuxe really stand out! This is a replacement pickguard for the Epiphone Emperor and De Luxe, but it will fit and really level up the look of any 17 or 18-inch archtop. The guard measures about 12" in total length.
I ship my guards undrilled to match all applications. Each guard is fully cut and polished by hand. Material pattern will vary between each guard. I use two layers to create the thickest outer binding layer, as Epiphone and Gibson have done. I find it lasts longer this way.
