[Healingshield] Premium Acoustic Guitar Pickguard Basic Type Clear Glossy

A little pricy for what it is and some directions in English would have been appreciated, but overall, I'm pleased. I don't write many reviews, but this one deserves a thumbs-up. It would get 5 stars if it was priced a little better.

There seems to as many pickguard possibilities out there as there are picks. They come in many types of materials, colors, designs, curiosities, and potential solutions. With that said, I simply could not make a decision. So, instead of having to match pickguard color to my guitars, I chose to purchase these clear types. The package comes with 2 guards slightly different in design but using the same basic overall coverage. Laying down a clear plastic pickguard requires 3 major objectives. The surface must be clean and oil-free, you should lay the guard in place to see your final location before removing the protection layers, and finally, remove any bubbles after application. This product comes with the 2 guards, a moistened cleaning towel, a dry dust removal towel, and a squeegee to remove air bubbles after placement. The directions are pretty basic but if you ever have applied a very thin layer of material to any surface, you know the rules. Try to find a dust-free area to do the work. Be sure to use the moistened towel to clean the surface and then wipe the surface with the dry dust-free towel. The adhesive side protection sticker is labeled 1. Remove that sticker and roll the guard onto the surface where you plan the pickguard to be. Using the squeegee, move it outwards from the middle to the edges across the entire guard. Then remove the protection layer numbered 2. Again, squeegee from the middle outwards to the edges until you don't see any major air bubbles under the guard. Very small air bubbles will eventually disappear. If you see some dust or dirt under the guard, that will require you to re-apply the guard. I was able to do both my guitars without needing a re-apply. For the money, this kit is well worth your consideration. Please note that after application, the only way you can tell you have a pickguard is by seeing the edges. The guards are 100% transparent.

It's perfect for Faith Naked series, preserve the aesthetic characteristics while protecting the surface. It's not as protective as those black pickguards, but enough for the greasy fingerprints. It's not difficult to apply, however I don't know what if you need to remove it, didn't try.

Self explanatory & easy to apply. It came with instructions & tools needed to apply it. Two pickguards arrived with this order, see photos below. The thin vinyl film is like the screen protector on a smartphone or a decal on a car window. The static cling vinyl sticks to any smooth surface. The trick is avoiding dust or air bubbles from being entrapped underneath. After washing & thoroughly drying the hands, place the guitar on a flat surface in a fairly dust free environment. Decide where to apply the pickguard shield. Use the tools provided to ensure the surface is dust free. Remove the protective film using the tab closest to the guitar surface as the vinyl shield is evened out carefully to remove air bubbles from under it. Then remove the remaining protective film. The pickguard is transparent. I've just had it for a couple of days. So far so good.

what this is, is some sort of flimsy plastic film intended as a screen saver, cut into the shape of a pickguard. What I thought I was getting was an actual clear plastic pickguard I could cover a thin abalone veneer with, and I believe the abalone has adhesive to fix it to the guitar. But enough about the abalone. This "pickguard" material might adhere to a flat glass screen, but it ain't working on the abalone, and I have doubts that it would adhere properly onto any guitar finish. If it's a legit guitar pickguard you're looking for, keep looking.

These work well, easy to apply, and last a while if you are not too hard on your guitar!! Overall rating is 4 because the description neglects to tell you that you receive two (2) picguards; one of each shape. So I ended up spending more money than necessary, because I ordered each style separately, but each packet came with both. I guess I'll eventually use them all; but it would have been nice to use that money elsewhere.

Okay, honestly, this thing is just a large phone screen protector for your guitar. MAKE SURE you're in a TOTALLY dust free environment, or you'll get these super ugly dust spots. Removing it from the instrument is really difficult, so you want to try applying it only once.On the plus side, it's a really good quality "screen protector" for your guitar. However, it's twice as expensive as it should be. Seriously. With how much easier it is to apply other pick covers at half the price and no cosmetic issues from dust, you'd think this thing wouldn't be more than ten dollars.

The Healingshield is definitely clear. I can only see it on the guitar from certain angles. I don't think that the casual observer would know that it is there. It also seems thick enough to do the job of protecting my guitar and be durable. The only caution is that you need to be careful and take your time applying it in order to avoid dust and air bubbles. A little pricey but a good product.

You actually get two pickguards in the pack along with a cleaning wipe, a microfibre cloth and some stickers to remove dust. The instructions are amusing, as if it’s been translated from Chinese via Dutch then into English on a beta version of google translate. Seriously, though, you can make out what it all means. I’m pretty happy with the result, there are a couple of tiny bubbles in there that can be seen in certain light but only just. The pick guard is barely visible on the guitar which was what I wanted and it is unobtrusive. I haven’t tried to remove one yet but I think it’s like a phone protector so I’m hopeful it would come off easily enough and not leave a mark.

This is an excellent product and does exactly what it says in the description... it takes a while to arrive but there were in fact, TWOitems in the packet... different shapes.It does take some care to avoid getting bits underneath when fitting it but no more than when you fit a monitor shield your on camera or iPod.It comes off easily and can be re-fitted and seems not to affect the sound.If you needed to trim it to fit better, cutting at a slight angle AWAY from the edge makes a better job ie; cutting just off the verticalwith the blade leaning towards the shield... I found scissors did not work too well as the edge they left seemed to show against the top.It's a well manufactured product and has all you'd need including squeegee, cleaning cloth etc.

A very well presented product and as described by the manufacturer. I did not find it difficult to apply to an 00 sized mahogany top.But it is quite thin. Just a thick film really. To begin with I thought the backing was the pickguard! Definitely not a criticism though and I'm pleased with the overall result which is subtle, unblingy and protective.Would recommend.

These are amazing pick guards,easy to fit ,and almost invisible,you have to look closely to see it ,I have used these on my other guitars,but they were the patterned type,never given any trouble,also there is no glue involved,no mess if you need to remove.I have fitted one to my Faith Venus high gloss ,and am delighted with the result see photo,I would buy again from this company.

Received item and the pack was open with no pickguards inside just the fitting products. Returned and requested refund. Will order again and hope they get it right. Will then give another review!!
