Default New here. Looking for advice on custom made pickguards

I've found a site online called Greasy Grooves, and they make some beautiful custom pickguards. I was wondering if any of you might know of other sites where I can custom design my own pickguard for my orange 5120. The color is hard to match.

I have seen a ton on Ebay, but I would recommend a guy named Setzer. I am not sure if he is a member her or not. I know he is on another Gretsch site. You can definately find his work here on many customised 5120s.

Yes, do a search for Paul Setzer - he's a member here and his work is top-notch.

Paul Setzer, without a doubt. The quality of his work is impeccable. And his prices are as low as Greasy Groove or any others. Great guy to know, also.

Paul Setzer has already been mentioned but i would also recommend emailing him. He has all the Gretsch templates and artwork to make most anything you want, including some pretty creative ones:

Paul just made me some conversion rings that worked out great and i plan to order a few more soon. Call Paul!
