    Good ideas, making a new pickguard will be tricky in the sense that the bridge pickup adjusts with Ibanez's system. For me, the pickguard is a bit to high, and lowering it puts the bridge pickup in no mans land. I'm almost surprised that this system hasn't been somehow revised. Its kind of a weak link. A clear pickguard over the top seems like the best choice if the height doesn't bother you. Good luck I'll be interested in seeing your revision.

    That was my problem, too. The high pickguard was awkward and scraping my knuckle on the screw was distracting. All it took was a small hole under the neck pickup and now it's a great 1-PU, no pickguard guitar.
