Re: Sweet Comanche up on the bay
i see so many comanches with pearl gurds, and replacing the guard is not exactly easy. does anyone have a non pearl guard comanche?

Re: Sweet Comanche up on the bay
I like the pearloid guards, in the right context at least...have them on both my Legacys (the one I bought used came like that, and I ordered one on my other). I think it looks good on that Commanche...but I take it you don't?louis cyfer wrote:i see so many comanches with pearl gurds, and replacing the guard is not exactly easy. does anyone have a non pearl guard comanche?

Very nice. However, his claim that it is nitro finished is highly unlikely. It looks to be a 2004 build.bword4 wrote:This thing is saweet. I just found it cruising the bay:

Agree, it is a good starting price.

Re: Sweet Comanche up on the bay
I'm not a huge fan of pearl pickguards but sometimes it looks ok. I dig the pearl on the 30th anniv. And it doesn't look to bad on that blonde Comanche but I would definitely prefer white.

Re: Sweet Comanche up on the bay
When I asked music man about getting a pickguard for one of their discontinued models I had, they referred me to "Chandler" at http://pickguards.us/.
I never ended up getting one so i have no experience with them, but they might be able to make a non-pearloid one for ya...

Re: Sweet Comanche up on the bay
I ordered my CAR Comanche with w/b/w plain pickgaurd with plastic knobs and 1c slim neck. I wanted Comanche with a 60's vibe to it. It looks great. I don't like Pearl pickgaurds. My 30th Anniversy Legacy came with a pearl pickgaurd I hate the pickgaurd but it will stay on the guitar only because it's an anniversy model.louis cyfer wrote:i see so many comanches with pearl gurds, and replacing the guard is not exactly easy. does anyone have a non pearl guard comanche?

Re: Sweet Comanche up on the bay
you know, i actually passed on a 30th anniversary model because of that. changing it wouldn't be right, and i don't want it with it.otis66 wrote:I ordered my CAR Comanche with w/b/w plain pickgaurd with plastic knobs and 1c slim neck.
