JayLo Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 Thank you so much, Dan from MojoAxe and, especially, skydog52 for your advice and tips regarding the pickguard and installation. BTW, besides the pickguard, I made the following mods on my H-530 since I bought it last year: - Amber knobs - Amber switch tip - Amber tuner knobs - Tonepros bridge w/nylon saddles - Bigsby

Did Paul tell you the trick of putting the little felt/rubber spacer under the front screw on the pickguard. I figured that out with mine, and I think it aligns much better with it.
JayLo Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 He did, but I've already been doing that on my other ES style guitars. Great looking guitar, BTW.
Yooper Posted July 18, 2023 Posted July 18, 2023 My 535 looks great with and without. However, I do prefer it on.
sgt1577 Posted July 19, 2023 Posted July 19, 2023 My 535 came with a wood pick guard. I’ll just leave it on!
DetroitBlues Posted July 19, 2023 Posted July 19, 2023 Unfortunately, only the older models got the wood guards. While my 535 has an official Heritage pickguard, it needs a better suited. My binding is cream, but the pickguard is black and white, not cream.
MartyGrass Posted July 19, 2023 Posted July 19, 2023 This is a H-530 with humbuckers and some special ornamentation.

Tales were told, myths debunked, futures revealed, new heros and ledgends created, however this topic did not come up.
snowscientist Posted October 14, 2023 Posted October 14, 2023 Just got the MojoAxe pickguard with the cream and black and it looks great on my 530. Since this guitar has an ebony board, I changed the knobs to smaller bonnet types for a more vintage look. Thanks to Skydog for pioneering this with Dan at MojoAxe. Really nice product that he makes there, highly recommended. Also Yooper appears to have my guitar in its cousin form of 535, awesome finish on that one. I do love the burnt amber color on these.

These guitars look so much better with pickguards!!!

MartyGrass Posted December 24, 2023 Posted December 24, 2023 Here's a couple of choices in pickguards.
