This is a hand-made, tooled leather pickguard made to fit a Rickenbacker 4003 bass guitar. It is made from approximately 1/8" thick genuine cowhide. The design is original. The design area is stained with coffee to bring out the cuts and impressions. The background coloration is achieved using bright white Angelus flexible leather paint. Front and back are sealed with an acrylic leather finish to provide a semi-gloss finish. Pickup opening and screw-holes are cut to fit a stock instrument. A vinyl stiffener with shielding has been applied to the backside of the knob and switch area. Picture is of identical item. Made to order. May require a few days to finish and assemble then ship.
