VizEx Zevo VZ-002-Light Yellow Pearl Telecaster Pickguard, 8-Hole PVC
Product description
The light yellow pearl finish is made from multi-ply PVC, giving this Telecaster pickguard a distinct look with a familiar guitar profile. Its 8-hole layout is designed for standard American- and Mexican-made Fender Telecaster models. Two neck pickup mounting holes and eight matching screws support a straightforward replacement. A protective film helps shield the front surface during shipping and installation.
Usage tips
Match the pickguard to a standard American- or Mexican-made Fender Telecaster with an 8-hole mounting pattern. It is not designed for Squier guitars, Asian-made Tele copies, or other non-Fender Tele-style instruments, so checking the guitar’s model and hole layout helps ensure a suitable fit. The listed size chart can also help you compare the guard with the body contours before installation.
Before mounting, peel away the protective film to reveal the finish. The eight pre-drilled screw holes provide the mounting points, while the two dedicated neck pickup holes allow access for pickup mounting and height adjustment without drilling those openings yourself. The matching screws are included, making this a practical choice for a planned replacement, restoration, or custom-build project. As with any replacement guard, align the outline and holes with the guitar before fastening.
For a refresh during a setup, the guard’s asymmetrical curved profile preserves the recognizable Tele-style appearance while covering the body area around the pickups and strings. The light yellow pearl color adds a more distinctive visual accent than a solid-color guard, while the multi-ply PVC construction is specific to this pearl finish.

Why it’s worth it
This replacement combines a recognizable Telecaster-style outline with a light yellow pearl finish, so it can refresh a guitar’s appearance without changing its familiar silhouette. The pre-drilled mounting pattern and included matching screws make it useful for owners replacing a worn or unwanted guard, as well as for repair and custom-build work. The two neck pickup mounting holes are a helpful detail for installations where pickup access and height adjustment matter.
Compared with choosing a solid-color version, this pearl option uses multi-ply PVC and brings a more layered look to the guitar. Its practical appeal is the combination of that finish, a specific 8-hole configuration, and pickup openings in one replacement part. Choose it when those details suit the guitar and the visual direction of the project.
Final verdict
For a standard American- or Mexican-made Fender Telecaster with the matching 8-hole layout, this VizEx Zevo pickguard offers a focused way to update or restore the instrument. The light yellow pearl multi-ply PVC, pre-drilled neck pickup openings, and included mounting screws make it especially useful when appearance and a ready-to-mount replacement are both part of the project.
