Capri pickguard question?

Post by jimanderson »

Can anyone tell me if the pickguard is original on this 58 Capri 335?

Not likely, as I don't recall them having tiered PGs like that.

I see 58's with gold 2 piece one elevated, just not in this configuration. I was hoping someone could identify this one.

Looks like someone just put the top guard on the bottom. *snicker* Never seen that before.

That thought came to mind to me also, but I really can't tell from the photos. I was hoping someone had seen something like this before.

Got the Rick in my hands and that is exactly what was done. It is now back to original placement.
