boabskiboab Posted November 12, 2011 Share Posted November 12, 2011 Hey guys, Just picked up a jack casady in ebony. Love the tone, playability and now its lost the cream pickguard and selector ring love the looks. Still think it would look better without the "Electar" pickup cover. but what is underneath the cover/ can the cover be removed? Anyone with any experience of this bass and its pickup, your knowledge would be graefully received. Cheers Boab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spinynorman Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 I got one recently too. I agree the yellow plastic isn't great, it's ok on the gold top, but just looks cheap against the black. Jeannie's Pickguards on ebay does a black replacement pg for the JCS, which might look better. Not sure it's worth it, though, compared to just taking it off. I did see a JCS with a black pickup cover on Talkbass, but I think that was probably painted, as it didn't look that good. I've been meaning to get inside mine to have a look round, but just haven't had the time or motivation. Even if you could get the guts out, I don't think it's a standard size cover that you could easily replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
