Les Paul pickguard on or off ?

 

[Steinmetzify]

Off, always. Especially on a GT.

 

[ejecta]

I like it like I like my wife's panties....... off.

 

[Ventura]

I've got a '57 GT and I've got a '57 BlackBeauty.

OFF on the GT,
ON on the BlackBeauty.

But hey, to each their own.

 

[charveldan]

Gotta have it on.

Only exception would be a killer flametop, but for Historics & Vintage, on.

 

[Gadzz]

On these two on looks killer! I like them off with a flame top though!

Guess how I voted

 

[thenine]

On even with a flametop

 

[rlord1974]

This poll is broken. Where is the "It depends on the model" option?

 

[Gorehog]

On!

 

[cphr3d]

Take it off... Take it off.... Take it off...

 

[BC Audio]

Looks funny off. Feels funny, too, to me anyway.

My new LP came with it off from the factory. I don't want to drill holes in the premium plus burst top... So it is off. But if it came with it on, I would leave it on for protection.

My old player has it on. It just looks complete with it on.

When I get a LP, two things happen before I play it...

1) Pickguard comes off.

2) Shaller strap-loks go on.

 

[jmgman69]

On

 

[Greedy Ghost]

If your going to leave it on might as well custom make one.

Don't do stock for anything

 

[Badronald]

I think that goofy piece of plastic is goofy.
Off.

When I got my LP new straight from Gibson, the pickguard came where it belonged- in the accessory compartment in the case.
