thegummy Posted August 15, 2023 Posted August 15, 2023 Anyone know where I can get a reasonably cheap Jazz pickguard but with a P pickup cutout instead of the neck J? I realise that the standard J pickguard doesn't quite line up with a P pickup in its proper place so I'm not bothered whether the pickup cutout comes out the bottom of the pickguard or if it's shaped slightly differently, as long as it fits on a J bass with the normal screwholes and the control cavity cover. Thought this would be easier to find but can't even find it on the pricier sites. Cheers! Quote

miles'tone Posted August 15, 2023 Posted August 15, 2023 Warmoth do one with the P cutout in the correct position. Quote
Bassmidget209 Posted August 15, 2023 Posted August 15, 2023 If it helps I have one that was used on my mexican jazz. I've since reverted back to standard jazz pickups so it is surplus to requirements. It's white, don't know if that's the colour you were going for? Quote

Brian18242 Posted October 9, 2023 Posted October 9, 2023 Do you think the AliExpress pickguards would fit a sadowsky metroexpress or are they sized for a fender jazz? Quote

It better be sized for a Fender! Mine is actually a Schecter but it's the same dimensions as Fender so it's Fender-sized pickguards that fit it. I would be very surprised if they were sized/shaped for anything other than the standard Fender design and didn't specifically mention it. Quote
thegummy Posted October 17, 2023 Author Posted October 17, 2023 Just received the pickguard today - sadly the pickup is nowhere near in the right place, it's way closer to the neck Quote

Actually had this website bookmarked for years but I didn't know they did what I'm looking for. Quote
