Jobiebass Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 While some people love them, I really dont like Tort scratchplates. Just got this beauty from Marcus (top bloke) I took the guard off cause I was just gonna leave it like that, but unfortunatly Modulus dont look all that great at fitting scratchplates as its left indents in the paint where they have screwed the plate on too hard. I was thinking about getting a clear guard, althou i really fooking hate them. but still, the marks might show thru the guard. So, what colour do you think and where can I get hold of one? ive googled it and cant find them anywhere. I really dont fancy importing one from modulus, that is if they actually sell them seperate (guessing they might not as the serial number is on the back of the guard too. any Ideas?

tauzero Posted September 19, 2008 Share Posted September 19, 2008 That tortoiseshell one looks lovely... Actually, I think you should look for a nicer tortoiseshell. Black is just so boring. Or try using some [url="http://www.mutr.co.uk/index.php?cPath=6_414"]interesting new materials[/url] to cover the scratchplate with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jobiebass Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 ooopsy, bought a MASSIVE JD sticker and covered over the scratchplate. good luck trying to sell that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
