I just picked up a new Taylor custom with a sinker redwood top and have the same concerns. I have added a clear removable pickguard. It has been on for a week and so far doesn't bug me too much. time will tell as I get some more time on this new guitar
Just a thought, Taylor recommends removing the static PG when the guitar is not in use.

Thanks Tgirl I have done some reading and recognize Taylor's position to protect itself. it seems many people leave them on for months with no adverse effects that being said I will probably check by removing it soon.
 I appreciate the feedback

Yes, it's probably overkill, but just thought I'd mention it, so you can decide what's best for you and your gorgeous guitar.  :)

thanks again Taylor girl I appreciate the thoughtful nature of your post. I took the clear pickguard off last night after about a week on the guitar and you would never know it was there. I will probably play it without for a while guitar is so much more beautiful without
