The Custom Esquire Telecaster Pickguard from our Artisan Series delivers a sleek, high-tech edge to your single-pickup workhorse. Designed without a neck pickup cutout for authentic Esquire bodies, this guard features our specialized micro-textured surface that transforms Gun Metal Gray into a non-reflective, satin-industrial finish. It's not glossy, not flashy—just precision tooling in visual form, giving your Esquire a modern "stealth" aesthetic that commands respect without saying a word.

Engineered and finished in-house at Ploutone, this Esquire-specific pickguard is precision-modeled for a flawless 8-hole Telecaster fit. The Gun Metal Gray colorway is exceptionally versatile: it provides subtle, tonal depth on Black or Silver guitars, a sharp professional counterpoint to Fiesta Red or Lake Placid Blue, and an understated factory-custom look on Butterscotch Blonde or Natural Ash bodies.

Artisan Series

The Artisan Series is where industrial precision meets visual restraint. This collection celebrates unique textures, bio-based materials, and in-house 3D-crafted manufacturing. Every piece is designed to transform your Esquire into a one-of-a-kind instrument—not through ornamentation, but through purposeful, technical design. If you believe your guitar should look as sharp as it plays, you've found your series.

Includes Custom Esquire pickguard only (no neck pickup hole).

Please refer to the second image for exact Esquire-specific dimensions. Verify your body's 8-hole pattern and routing before purchasing.
