Hey,

I purchased a CIJ 75 reissue jazz awhile ago. I like the quality but it is hard finding things like pickguards ect. I don't really understand why Fender can't make things more universal but that would make sense and stop the confusion! LOL! I'm wondering if anyone would know what are some great pickups that could go in this without having to rout the body to accept. I've tried the Fender vintage noiseless and they do not fit so I'm just guessing that most other Fender pickups won't as well. If anyone has run into this problem I'd like to hear from you!

I've rarely done a pickup upgrade were I didn't have to dig out the Dremel tool for a touch up for free movement. If you send your original pickup to Lindy Fralin he will no doubt buff the upgrade to fit perfectly. He's just that nice a guy. I can NOT say enough nice about Mr. Fralin.

For pickguard changes on an oddball bass (and ANYTHING except American or MIM standards are considered "oddball") you just have to get a custom made one and that ain't cheap. Some places that do custom pickguards are on my REPLACEMENT/UPGRADE PARTS page from the INDEX page in my signature. A few places that will dupe your "oddball" pickguard are Jeannie, Terrapin, Pickguardian, Ed Roman, Catalina Guitars, CMK and Coloriffic.
