GuitarSafe™ Micro-Suction Technology

Our proprietary GuitarSafe™ Micro-Suction Pads are modeled after a Gecko's foot, using suction instead of adhesive to adhere to your guitar. 

We tested multiple formulations of micro-suction material before finalizing the formula for our GuitarSafe™ Micro-Suction Pads.  Some formulations were far too aggressive and others not quite aggressive enough.  Instead, we wanted it to adhere safely to the guitar's finish but not so aggressively that it could cause damage to delicate finishes. The pad's surface contains thousands of microscopic air pockets that create partial vacuums between the puck and the target surface. It isn’t pressure sensitive and won't leave any residue behind. It can also be used repeatedly without losing its gripping power.

Great Value Add

The Thalia Brazilian Black Cherry Pickguard helps protect the finish on my Taylor GS-Mini Koa-e and it looks outstanding. I also purchased the blue abalone truss rod cover which really complements the look of the guitar.

Checkerboard Strat/Tele pick guards

OK! I haven’t, as of yet, used them on any guitars but I love checkerboard anything so I got them. I’ve been buying things from Thalia for 9 years and things come and go. The old engraved picks and pick pucks for instance so I bought them. The quality, like everything, is special. If you’re thinking about getting these beautiful pick guards I’d suggest getting now. You never know how long they’ll be available and you won’t be disappointed.
Bring back the cool engraved pick again please. That said beautiful stuff as always. XO

Great Product

I'm super happy with the quilted bubinga pickguard. The color perfectly complements the maple and spruce of my 1997 Taylor 610. I applied it over the existing pickguard.

Pick Guard

Disappointed with the pickguard I ordered for my Taylor. It was cut slightly off center or undersize, could not get to align over current pickguard so put it on a Taylor without a guard looks okay. Need better packaging can be be damaged in shipping. Did not feel like dealing with a return so found a use for it as stated.
