Exhanged the factory parchment pickguard for this on my Mystic Blue Standard Strat. Every hole in the body aligned up perfect. Makes the color stand out much better in my opinion. Too bad Fender didn't put this pearloid guard on right from the factory. I think it looks much better. I also replaced the tremolo back cover too in pearloid white. Yeah the price is a little much, but its a Fender product. I wanted to keep everything factory spec as much as possible. Can't beat products from Fender IMO.Fender American Standard Strat Pickguard 11 Hole White Pearl

I bought this pickguard for my 2009 standard Strat in 3 tone sunburst, and it fit perfectly. The pearloid white is completely gorgeous. You don't really realize how much the pickguard affects the overall aesthetic of the instrument in a plain color, and this pearl pickguard takes an already pleasant view and takes it up a notch. It really makes it look like a much higher end instrument.The pickguard itself feels very sturdy. It's a 4 ply technically, W/B/W/pearl, though the pearl ply is very thin and probably only for cosmetic purposes. That said, the pickguard does seem that it would hold up well against warping. The back of it is shielded to protect against noise, and it seems to do as well as the stock guard did.
My only gripe with it is that it is pretty expensive. Especially when compared to the standard 3 ply guards that are half the price, you're basically shelling out double the money for one extra ply, and a rather thin one at that. I got mine on sale cheap, but at its full price I doubt I would've taken the plunge.

This replaced a Black Pickguard on a tobacco sunburst body. Really makes the sunburst pop more so than plain white.Fender American Standard Strat Pickguard 11 Hole White Pearl
