FenderTelecaster Pickguard White Pearl
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Replacement Telecaster pickguard in white pearl, drilled for a standard SS Tele. A cosmetic swap or a fix for a cracked or yellowed guard.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Changing a Tele's look without touching wiring or hardware
- Replacing a guard that has cracked, warped or yellowed
- Builders assembling a Tele-style partscaster
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Humbucker-routed or non-standard Teles — the cutouts won't line up
- Anyone unsure of their guitar's screw-hole count and spacing
- Players wanting a functional upgrade — this changes appearance only
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Telecaster body shape
Follows the standard Tele outline and control-plate cutaway. It won't fit a Strat, an Esquire variant or an offset.
Detail 03
Pearl finish
A pearloid pattern, not flat white. It shifts under stage lighting rather than sitting matte.
Detail 04
Pickguard, not a loaded assembly
The plate alone. Pickups, switch, pots and knobs all move over from your existing guitar.
Detail 05
White
Neutral against sunburst, butterscotch or a solid color. The classic Tele look.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Count your current guard's screw holes and compare before ordering — Tele patterns vary
- 02Mounting screws are not part of this; reuse your existing ones
- 03Pickups, wiring and control plate are separate — you're transferring your own
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Will this fit my Telecaster?
It's cut for a standard SS Telecaster. Lay your old guard on top and check the outline, pickup cutouts and screw holes before drilling anything.
02How many screw holes does it have?
Tele guards vary by era and model, so compare against your existing guard before you buy rather than assuming a match.
03Do I need to rewire anything to install this?
No. On a standard Tele the electronics live on the control plate and the neck pickup mounts to the guard, so it's a screw-out, screw-in swap.
04Is white pearl the same as plain white?
No. Pearl is a pearloid pattern with visible swirl and shimmer. Plain white is flat and uniform.
