Free Mount Information and Installations
Discover the innovative Free Mount system for your custom guitar pickguard. Designed to revolutionize how pickguards are attached, the Free Mount system ensures that up to 90% of the pickguard remains elevated, a hair off the guitar’s surface. This ingenious design offers so many benefits, including protection against top cracks caused by binding something solid to the wood top, which needs to expand and contract. Installation is a breeze with the Free Mount system. Gone are the days when 3M tape required permanent commitment, where a single misstep could mean starting over. With Free Mount, not only is the installation process straightforward, but the pickguard is also fully removable and reusable. This flexibility is a game-changer for guitarists who value precision and versatility. There is also an enhancement of the guitar’s resonance by allowing the top to vibrate more freely than with traditional attachment methods like full-sheet 3M double-stick tape.

To assist you further, I have created comprehensive installation and removal tutorials. These videos will guide you through the process, demonstrating the ease of installation and how to remove the pickguard without damaging your guitar.

Optionally, if you feel you'd like something a bit more permanent, I am now offering a hybrid version. This uses the same backing, but instead of the Free Mount tape, you can get ¼" strips of 3M tape. This is recommended for any guitar with a nitrocellulose or oil-based finish, as the Free Mount tape does not work well on those finishes. The Hybrid Free Mount is installed the same way as the standard Free Mount, but you must ensure placement is correct before the 3M tape adheres to the top, as it is hard to remove. The advantage is that the pickguard sits closer to the top, but it does not completely cover the top as a standard full-sheet 3M does. That full sheet covers the entire back of the pickguard, so there’s no chance the top will crack over time. And you can use as few as 4 small pieces to adhere the pickguard to the top. Once at each corner, and you can add a 5th in the center.

Pickguard Care
Do not use any chemicals to clean your pickguard; use a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth to wipe it clean. Please make sure to keep your guitar stored in a case with proper humidity and climate control to protect the wood. If you do not, the pickguard may warp (too warm or too dry). If you don't have a case, placing your guitar on a stand, using a guitar humidifier, a hygrometer, and sealing it in a large plastic bag will help maintain the right environment for both the pickguard and the guitar. Although you may not see any changes in your guitar, these conditions can affect the tone. It's important to keep your guitar humidified.
