slobluesine Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 (edited) is there any difference between a 51 & 54 Precision scratchplate? Edited April 26, 2012 by slobluesine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slobluesine Posted April 27, 2012 Author Share Posted April 27, 2012 seems they shrunk the scratchplate to fit the contoured round edges on the horns of the 54 Precisions. the reisuue plates are for slab 51's and cant be modified as the screw holes are too near the edge, BUGGA so, can anyone on here make me one?

StraightSix Posted April 27, 2012 Share Posted April 27, 2012 [quote name='slobluesine' timestamp='1335536223' post='1632827'] Black, single ply [/quote] Sorry - I have a WBW which may have fitted but not black. I think the Bassdoc is probably your best bet for an exact fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] This is correct. I'm told the Fender Squier Mike Dirnt bass has a blackguard, that fits the contour body, like this (This ones a B/W/B, but you could shop around for a single ply?); [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/B-W-B-pickguard-fits-Mike-Dirnt-Signature-Fender-P-bass-/250977885691?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item3a6f729dfb#ht_620wt_1185"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/B-W-B-pickguard-fits-Mike-Dirnt-Signature-Fender-P-bass-/250977885691?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item3a6f729dfb#ht_620wt_1185[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
