Elfrasho Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 Need your help! I'm going to get a black one for a fender jazz I've purchased. The genuine fender ones seem to be 3 to 4 times the price of no named ones I've seen. Apart from being more 'authentic', is there any real benefit over the cheap non branded ones? Or do you really see a difference? Cheap because they're thin and made from a different material? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ead Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Keep a weather eye on the For Sale section on here or maybe evilbay. Some little gems do come up. I got a decent P bass item from a seller based in Holland last year, straight fit, no issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxyFuze Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 You can get decent 3-ply ones on Amazon for around £11. Avoid 1 ply as apparently they can warp over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wylie Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Try WD Music: https://www.wdmusic.com I bought a good quality jazz pickguard from them for about $30. Of course I don't know if they deal to the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-Bay Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I have bought a super cheap eBay special in the past, it came in less than a week from China (where most of the others come from anyway) and was a very good fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
