Pickguard Problem

Well my second thread today!

My OOO3 has the pickguard lifting around it’s perimeter.

Any thoughts on why this happened?

Should I try to have this fixed?

Any opinions highly valued.

Easy enough to remove the guard and clean it....replace the adhesive w a new sheet of 3M adhesive.
Give Collings a call maybe they'll send you a piece....

Alternatively, you could go with a custom Holter pick guard. Many consider Holter to be among the finest.

Red, Tyler makes great pickguards, but there's really no need to change the pickguard when the adhesive can be easily replaced.

Agree, Greg. If that’s all it takes, then it should be done as you describe.

Yours is a terrific post.
