Our Artisan Series Textured Gun Metal Gray pickguard brings a sleek, industrial edge to your Stratocaster. Moving away from traditional high-gloss plastics, this guard features a specialized micro-textured surface that delivers a sophisticated, heavy-metal matte aesthetic. The result is a non-reflective finish that feels tactical, premium, and distinctly boutique.
Designed and crafted in-house at Ploutone, this pickguard is engineered for a precise MIM & USA modern 11-hole Stratocaster fit with a single humbucker "Tom Delonge" style layout—stripped down to one bridge pickup for pure, high-output performance. The Gun Metal Gray colorway is chosen specifically for players looking to channel a modern, stealth-inspired look into their instrument—perfect for pairing with black, silver, arctic white, and dark metallic body finishes.
