No, definitely not.

You don't deserve koa.
Of course not.
Unless you’re a flamenco guitarist, there’s no reason for a guard to exist, unless:
1) Cheaper manufacturing
2) Cater to hack guitar players who probably like fingerboard inlays
That said, I do think that some guards really do look great.

I'd almost always rather have what should be under the pick guard than the pick guard.

I have the box
I've always wondered how those pickguards don't just totally screw the sound of those guitars.
Then you'd really hate this.

I have a Batman costume, I'd play it.
I LOVE this one. I don't care what anyone says.

UNACCEPTABLE!
You are correct sir. That's why she looks so worried.
The guitar in question had what was referred to as the "Marlo Thomas" pickguard by collectors, not the "Laura Petrie" pickguard. (But actually the "real" Marlo Thomas pickguard only appeared in the later 60's. But close enough that collectors started calling them all "Marlo Thomas".)

The FG300 is an awesome guitar. Made to challenge Martins D-28 at an affordable price. The red labels were made by Nippon Gakki. Mine is a '72.
