FinnDave Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 If a tort 'plate clashes with the colour of your bass, then you've bought the wrong colour bass, simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought a sunburst Jazz recently, got it home and ordered a tort plate before I had the kettle on. Didn't play it until the next day when my lovely tort plate arrived and was on the bass. The white/black/white Fender plate it came with has been hidden from human eyes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's sat in a drawer with other non-tort guards removed from various Fenders, with one tort guard that hasn't got a bass to enhance there to keep them in order.

And tortoiseshell came from turtles. Wow, two actual facts in one post! Nice tortoise though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest MoJo Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I'm going to have a stab at making my own, primarily because the none of the pickguards available in the aftermarket fit a Vintage V4. I'm thinking of making a mint one and a tort one and see which I prefer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can spray your existing pickguard. Mint paint is available. You can't spray tort though, unfortunately. But you could always slice one off the Tortloaf...
