Basvarken, I did use your pdf template. Thanks for sharing that with us!
I had to shift the whole guard slightly to the bass side to cover the screw hole of the tail of the original.
I saw a picture of a blue bird with a black pg somewhere on the net and thought it looked very cool.
One thing for those who are planning on putting an original pickup in their bird, you might not need to cut a hole for the pickup if you use .060" material. I could have just made a hole for the wires and mounted the pickup to the pickguard. There was just the right amount for clearance on my bird.
