Samherome USA SSS ST PK 11-Hole Strat Pickguard, 3-Ply Green Shell

A guitar refresh can call for a pickguard made for a particular Strat-style fit, while other projects leave room for adjustments. This Samherome 11-hole pickguard is designed for USA and Mexican Standard Fender Stratocasters.

Its SSS format, three-ply plastic construction, and Green Shell color give the replacement a clearly defined configuration and look. The model reference is USA SSS ST PK.

Choose it for a compatible guitar when you want a specific 11-hole Strat-style guard rather than a part selected for a different mounting pattern.

Tech specs

• Compatibility: USA and Mexican Standard Fender Stratocasters
• Material: Plastic, three-ply construction

The pickguard is about 2.2 mm thick, with a stated variation of ±0.2 mm. Fit is intended for USA and Mexican Standard Fender Stratocasters, Fender Squier Stratocasters and other Strat types are not listed as direct-fit models. For another Strat type, some modification may be needed. Since pickguard outlines and mounting patterns vary, compare the existing guard’s shape and hole positions before ordering.

Getting the most from it

This part suits a straightforward replacement project on a compatible Standard Strat. Matching the hole pattern and outline to the guitar helps make the intended fit clear before installation, while the SSS format identifies the guard configuration for the project. The Green Shell color also gives the guitar a distinct visual accent without changing the stated pickup format.

For a guitar outside the listed USA and Mexican Standard models, the manufacturer notes that modification may be needed. That makes this a more specific choice than a modification-led project: it is aimed at the named Standard fit, while other Strat types call for checking the shape and mounting arrangement against the instrument. The pickguard’s plastic protective films are intended to be peeled off after installation, so leave them in place while positioning and mounting the guard, then remove them when the work is complete.

Included in the package

Pickguard mounting screws are included, providing the specified fasteners for the installation. Plan the replacement around the existing pickguard’s outline and mounting locations, then position the new guard and secure it with the supplied screws. Removing the protective films after installation helps finish the setup without peeling them during handling.

Buying verdict

The Samherome USA SSS ST PK is a focused choice for a USA or Mexican Standard Fender Stratocaster refresh: it brings together an 11-hole SSS layout, three-ply plastic construction, a Green Shell finish, and mounting screws in one replacement pickguard. It is especially relevant when preserving the specified Standard Strat fit matters more than choosing a guard for a wider range of guitar types. Match the guitar and mounting pattern to the listed fit, and this pickguard offers a practical route to a coordinated replacement with a distinctive color.
