But where to find a pickguard you know? So I looked up Chandler who I met at a guitar show, 1988
Chandler guitars has been off and on forever, but his money is really into doing perfect pickguards. He's the best.
What he told me about these Blazers is 1) these are becoming a most-requested pickguard 2) there's about 6 different patterns total.
3) He told me: he has all 6 in template form, as he does OEM work for all Jap custom-shop and US maker guitar companies. But to match up say, just any Blazer pickup config, to a certain year, you have to make a pencil-tracing of the holes and pickup-routs so he can match up for the exact one to go with it.
4) He can give you any color Blazer plastic-stock you want (white-black-white, black-white-black etc.) but the price is still gonna be over $40 with shipping.
Here's what I think - for $40 to get a perfect fitting Blazer pickguard replacement, from the original template by probably the original machine that made it, I think Paul's your go-to guy for that.
Chandlers work is perfection and consistent for over 30 years as far as I've seen..Comment

Sort of like the time Ted Nugent wanted to play through EVH's "magic box". When Nuge played Ed's set up, he wound up sounding like...Ted Nugent.

AH the old "Edwards Sustainer" Pickups.. good call!
That's one I don't have.. I do not recall, but do you know: does that thing induce magnetic draw on the strings?
In other words, you hold a screwdriver or something magnetic on it - does it pull? I think it does.
If the Sustainer circuit and (they called it a "sensor-driver" pickup) coils are magnetic, that may have been why I passed on it. You get the same sustain level with two cabinets... but of course you can't use two cabs at 3am when you get a stiff dick of an idea flowin'.. like I say the trade-off is a good call..Comment

I ended up going with a classic strat style pickguard (made myself!) and put JB Jr's in the bridge and neck and a 1/4 pounder in the middle. I added a tap switch to both the JB's. I really like this config. So much that I just loaded my Fender with the same pups and config. My only complaint is that the neck/middle and bridge/middle selections sound a bit thin when tapped. At first I thought it was a phasing issue but now I think that is just the way the pups work with each other.
Thanks for the suggestions fellas!Comment
