I have no experience with changing pickups in my guitar so I would definitely advice going through the settings on your amp/tone knob before buying a new pick guard


I did do a little googling though

There's also a Steve luckather hss preloaded pickgiard but those are Emgs so don't know whether that works if you don't have a battery compartment in your guitar yet.


Most preloaded pickguards are sss so for your configuration it may be better to buy separate pickups to get the king of tone you want out of it.
