danbowskill Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I fancy getting a gold anodized pick guard for my p bass, but I'm worried my dimarzio model p's might be to big for the cut outs? ....most scratch plates I've bought I've had to sand the pickup holes bigger, which isn't to taxing with plastic Anyone tried it with a set of dimarzios?

sblueplanet Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 I sent my existing white P bass pickguard to Jack’s Instrument Services in Manchester and had a replica brushed gold anodised one made to order. It’s superb. If your existing guard has correct-sized pickup holes that might be a better bet than one from a shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbowskill Posted January 24, 2018 Author Share Posted January 24, 2018 (edited) Good idea :-) is he much more£ than the average £50 do you know?( don't fancy 70 quidish on one) Cheers Edited January 24, 2018 by danbowskill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sblueplanet Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Mine cost £69 delivered. Its a perfect fit. I have a medium scale P bass so is slighlty smaller so needed a custom-made one. If you think about it, someone skilled would prob charge minimum £20 to enlarge the pickup route holes on a shop-bought one anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
