Lovely Body... I'd be wax finish, no scratch plate little control plate. How about Cream Covers for that 70's DiMarzio look? My First Bitsa...

Yours is a newer one, takes care of the A.. I put one on an Arai Jazz And Similar...

Wouldn't get that 'lil headstock knotty on a F. Nice bit of character.

Candle Wax or Hard Soap on the threads for lube...

Switcher, Simple ABY, Power for LED's? Check Jack Socket Ground, often paint on the case around the jack can reduce earthing effectiveness.

Any engineering type workshops near you, Classic Car enthusiast down the pub? Center Pop Drill then maybe a reverse bit in a pillar drill? Or just go with the remaining 4...

A little plaque would do, still think a statue is Over The Top...

Bit 'Over Kill' having a Statue...

Thats the beauty of the foam... soft foam cut with scissors, hard foam, netal ruler and carving knife, plus it squishes to fit!

For that €£$ i'll wait until some kind soul has so. Jazz pup packing foam.

Mk1 Barts are a Reverse P Mars Bar. SR500 with em passive, Vol & 3-Way Switch

Exactly this^ I'd like some... Red SR300 with Maida Vale Stacks got Red Foam And the SR400 with DiMarzio Twin Coils

Can't think of a better way to start! Basement? Bass Meant! Get a nice fitting screw driver for the machine head screws, and a wipe of candle wax or bar of soap on the threads when refitting. Run a couple of practice cuts outside the area, as different wood will cut different, don't force it, let the tool do the work. Minimal sanding with one of those i think. Steady as she goes...

Strats and Jazz on AliExpress... maybe worth a further look or msg. Lots of pickguard sheet material cheap.

Maida Vale Stacks... DiMarzio Twin Coils Or Entwistle's - Mine are Ceramics, Go Neo's if ya wanna go Bonkers on a Budget. And some Kent Armstrong Vintage Hot lurking...

Maybe a Tonerider Duke? https://tonerider.com/products/the-duke-jazz

What is the finish name, maybe there is an actual paint code for the colour, like cars etc... Good Automotive Spray shop nearby that might be able to 'read' the paint with a machine? - I'd be having a look at car paint touch up pens as the best colour match, at the most cost effective cover up.

Something that makes them want to pick it up, if thats pink, or one with skulls on... often the smaller sizes are still quite deep. How about a small encore type electric? Or a diddy Strat Squier or Harley B type Might be a little easier to fret and get a note to sound and keep the momentum.
