You will be sent a tracking number but the tracking information is very limited. It will only be updated once an attempted delivery has been made. If you see the message 'An update will only be provided when we attempt to deliver your item' on the Royal Mail website, this means that an attempted delivery has not yet been made and is still processing through the Royal Mail network.

PICKGUARDS: Do not remove the protective cover or place any components on this pickguard until you have made a "dry run" on the instrument. Make sure all mounting holes and pickup cuts are positioned correctly. Pickguard replacement warranty will be void if the protective cover has been removed. Removing the protective film means that the item is not in a re-saleable condition and therefore we cannot accept it back for a refund. 

Please ensure that any returns are sent using a registered postal or courier service as we cannot be responsible for undelivered parcels being sent to us. Please post returns to the following address:
