Beautiful reproduction tortoise for vintage-style acoustic guitars. The look of actual tortoise shell, complete with semi-transparent amber areas that intensify the soundboard color.Each Tortoloid pickguard is individually made. Just like natural shell, no two have exactly the same pattern.Durable, self-adhesive, and a mere 0.025 inch thin! They won't dampen tone, or shrink. The edges can be beveled with fine sandpaper. Tortoloid is a handsome material which uses poured resins and dyes to reproduce the color and 3-dimensional depth of antique Hawksbill tortoise shell. Luthier Mario Proulx developed this material using antique guitar picks for sampling the colors and refining the patterns.Dimensions: 0.025 inch x 7-1/8 inch x 4 inch (0.64mm x 180.98mm x 101.6mm)Radius at soundhole edge: 2-3/8 inch (60.32mm)When in doubt, order an oversized pickguard. Trim and file to fit.
