Yes there is...

1st 2 pics:5 string MIM Fender Jazz.Black with black abalone pick guard.
3rd pic:Squire Affinity V Jazz Bass.Black with custom prismatic painted pick guard,JZ3 pre-amp
4th pic:Squire Jazz Bass VM Fretless w/JZ3 pre-amp (left) and Fender MIM Jazz with prismatic custom paint pick guard (right)

Below is another pic of all 4 together. It's an older pic so the MIM 5 string Fender (2nd from left) did not have the black abalone pickguard at this point. I have since added a Badass II bridge as well.

Here's the MIM 5 string..latest pic..

I just purchased a Baritone guitar.
It has a 27" scale length.
What are your bass guitar's scale lenght.

The scale length is the length of the string from the nut to the saddle.
Toppscore :)

No..it's a stereo pickup called The Stickup. It's made by Stick Enterprises. It's passive and is the standard pickup. Stick also offers another passive version with Villex pups called the PASV-4. It features 1 pup in the neck and one pup in the bridge position for each side (melody/bass).This is a switchable mono/stereo version.There is also an active pickup with EMGs called the ACTV-2. This version has an EMG in the bridge neck position for both sides of the neck (melody/bass) and a stereo/mono switch.

Cool. You have heard of the Lipstick pickups, right?
Perfect name to go along with the Chapman Stick.
Just thought it a bit of fun :lol:
