Soooo jealous!! I've been looking to get a couple of those myself. Thanks for the info on where to get one made.

I saw a guitar on eBay a while back that had a carbon fiber strat style body. If I only had the cash at the time. I love the carbon fiber look.

Is it a laminate? I like the look. How flexible is it compared to a regular pick guard?

It is very hard stuff and not very flexible. it weighs less than a standard guard and is probably 10x stronger. will probably never crack at the screw hole :D
