I didn't want this to get lost in the other thread about adding a pickguard to a Soloist (Yes, I know, dumb idea). Anyway, thanks to those who suggested Axe Wraps. I applied it tonight in getting ready to perform the national anthem next month. I'm very pleased with the outcome and I'll probably leave it on there for a while!

Since the slice around the edges didn't come out 100% perfect, I decided to add "body binding" with leftover pieces:

Of course, I also took the opportunity to lemon oil the board, polish the frets, and make a mild truss rod adjustment.
