Hi Can anyone help me.

I have bought a very nice second hand American standard Jazz bass and by the serial number it dates around 96/97. I am puzzled however that the pick guard has different holing to every other American Jazz standard that I see. I wanted to buy a tortoiseshell pick guard to replace the white one that it has on it currently, however I cant seem to find one that fits. Did the older models have a different pick guard layout or has it always been the same as the new American standard Jazz? Any help would be much appreciated?

Thanks

Alba :wink:

Pickguardian will do it. Just send your guard or a complete tracing and you'll get a spot-on replacement.

Highly recommended.

The pickguards have evolved over time. I have a 98 Jazz and not only is the pickguard a different shape but it also has a different amount of screw holes.

As you've probably found out, several companies offer replacements. You might also try a counter top (as in kitchen) company that does custom work. They will have the same tools necessary for making a pickguard and may be competitive.
