is it safe to screw my own hole into the body if a hole or two does not match the exact holes already in place?

@spiers240 Hi, Yes, if you don't mind having an extra hole or two under the pickguard. Put the pickguard on with the screwholes that do line up, then use something with a sharp point to push through the hole where you want the new screw to go - and push into the finish of the guitar (then you have started the hole for the screw to go into) - no need to go too deep with this, but if you make a hole about the size of the screw thread...

@spiers240 ... it will help stop the screw chipping the paint on entry.

surely removing the strings will cause pressure change, damaging to the fretboard. is this correct?

@piersnjake Absolutely not, the neck can withstand the tension change, it's perfectly normal to remove strings from an instrument, unless your guitar has serious issues it won't damage it.

When you measure the pickup heights, are you measuring to the top of the pickup cover or the pole?

@truebluefliplover It doesn't matter as long as you remember what you measured, the top of the cover would be easier as the poles could all be at different heights - you just need to know the measurement so that you can raise the pickups to the same height once the new pickguard is installed.
