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.

Quilted Bubinga Pickguard

Easily installed this Quilted Bubinga Pickguard on my Taylor 614ce. It fit perfectly, and looks great.

Black cherry pickguard

Nicely made and looks great on my guitar. Would recommend.

beautiful pickguard, complements my Taylor academy perfectly

A think there is some finish but it appears mat, the grain is subtle and beautiful. The academy is a low bling guitar, the black cherry pickguard is perfect for it. The sizing is dead on, the ( non permanent ) adhesive backing was a breeze to apply.

very nice

I would only like it better if the edges were beveled … but it is otherwise perfect and stylish.

Nice Touch for Strat

A subtle but fun touch to break up the all-white motif.
