Custom Works: Noiseless Loaded Pickguard for Strat®

As promised/great quality

Exactly as promised. The hardware itself consists of very high quality components with equally high quality assembly. The packaging was also very good for protecting the loaded pick guard, and considering it was shipped from NZ to Canada (surprisingly quickly) that’s a good thing. A couple of suggestions to make life even better: 1) More choices of noiseless pickups. I probably would have chosen the APEX HSS set or a milder humbucker (my current favourite is the Thornbucker), but only the APEX+ set was offered. 2) Offer anodized aluminum pick guards. I have an Ultra 2 strat and was hoping to find a loaded pick guard with such an option but couldn’t. 3) Check dimensions of the pickup covers for consistency. The cover of the neck pickup scraped against the slot in the pick guard while the middle was fine. 4) Provide suggestions for better balancing the volume between the single coils and the humbucker. With the APEX + set at the recommended heights, there a pretty big difference
