Does anyone know if such a pickguard might exist (like a Reggie Hamilton sig pickguard)?
Is the P pickup in the same spot?
It's a long shot I know but I would like to put a pickguard on my Bello if one could easily be found.

I know of no stock pickguard that is going to work perfectly. This would be a custom job with the associated expense.

I thought as much. Is there much cost involved? I'm assuming a luthier would have the necessary tools. I would like 3 ply black/white/black.

Ed Roman Guitars in Las Vegas could make you one. It won't be cheap, but it will be nice. They do very good custom pickguard work. Custom work is quite pricey. Pickguards aren't exactly fun to make either. If you can make a tracing exactly like you want it just about any shop with a CNC machine can make one for significantly less, such as Jeanie Pickguards.
