A pickguard serves a few important purposes for a guitar. It protects the body of the guitar from scratches and marks caused by pick strokes. It also helps to reduce unwanted feedback and resonance by acting as a barrier between the strings and the body. Additionally, pickguards can contribute to the aesthetic appeal of the guitar, adding a touch of style or customization.

How do you install a pickguard on a flying v?
it's basicly the same just like on stratocasters. if your guitar doesn't have a pickguard and you want to install it, then you have to drill holes in your guitar body. And you need to make sure the holes in the pickguard match the position of your pots and so on or you could just make a custom pickguard (a metal pickguard would be cool).

Can you put Seymour duncan alnicopro 2 humbuckers on a squier bullet stratocaster?
Yes it is possible to do so. There are a few ways of achieving this, the easiest way being to buy a new pickguard routed for humbuckers (either Humbucker-Humbucker or Humbucker-Single-Humbucker). A good place a new pickguard to get on is on guitarfetish.com. An other way is to route your current pickguard, but do not recommend this as it is much more risky. I also recommend getting the wireing done by a professional if you do not have experience in the domain. Nevertheless, the wireing diagrams can be found on seymourduncan.com .
