They are wide enough to work on my acoustic guitar that's in need of some TLC, but it's got a lot of wiggle room/leaving a lot of exposed wood. I like the idea but I'm just going to tape her instead of using this print.

The thickness could use some work, printed this on my ender 3 pro but it just tore apart when I tried to get if off the build plate.

I printed these and they were a perfect fit for my Schecter hellraiser, Epiphone lespaul, and Squire telecaster. No gaps between the guard and metal fret. On my Martin acoustic there was a slight gap, but I’d be surprised if any polishing paper or erasers would hit wood before they just wear out the plastic on the guard first.

Slots could probably be narrower even with thick frets. Now a lot of wood is exposed around the frets. Neat model, since these can be hard to find locally when you need them.
