      Give your Telecaster that classic vintage vibe with this 8‑hole pickguard in 4‑ply Brown Tortoise. The swirling amber and chocolate tones create the iconic tortoiseshell pattern that's been gracing guitars since the golden age of rock and roll. It's a timeless look that instantly adds warmth and character to any Tele—whether you're going for authentic '60s mojo or just want something with more personality than plain black or white.

      Please check the dimensions in the photos before purchasing. This pickguard is designed for modern Telecasters with an 8‑hole mounting pattern. If you have a vintage‑style Telecaster, check out our 5‑hole Telecaster pickguards for proper fitment.

      Why Choose This Pickguard?

      • Perfect Fit: Designed for modern‑style Telecasters with the standard 8‑hole pattern for seamless alignment and no modification required.
      • All Hardware Included: Comes with matching mounting screws for a quick, hassle‑free install that drops right in.
      • Premium Aluminum Shielding: Genuine aluminum foil backing helps reduce hum and interference for a cleaner signal.
      • Durable 4‑Ply Construction: Multi‑layer build provides superior scratch resistance and a polished edge finish that showcases the classic tortoiseshell pattern.
      • Brown Tortoise Finish: Rich, swirling pattern in warm brown tones that complements sunburst, natural, and blonde finishes with vintage authenticity.

      Whether you're restoring a classic Tele to period-correct specs or adding retro charm to a new build, this 4‑ply Brown Tortoise Shell pickguard combines reliable fit, professional shielding, and that unmistakable vintage aesthetic that never goes out of style.

      Includes pickguard and mounting screws.
