Custom pickguard for Jazz Bass?

[RikiB]

I have the Medium scale Aerodyne that I love but I know I’d love more with a Precision pickup in the neck,does anyone know a place I could get a pickguard made as the pickguard isn’t a standard sized one it’s a lot smaller and to have cutouts for a P pickup and I’ll route the body to fit the pickup in to.

I had a custom pickguard for a Jap Jazz made here and had no complaints.

Jacks/Tiny Tone are good. I got my custom Jazz guard there which I'm gratified to see is on their example page...

If you need to go smaller... maybe a cheapy from Ali express... less than a tenner... and fit the old one in the center based on existing pickup - draw around, and cut off the excess...

If you want a fancy one you could try an Alperious pickguard.

Nice!

 

One of the things I prefer about Precision vs Jazz is their one-piece pieckguard/control panel - it seems a nicer design to me than the usual Jazz thing with a seperate chrome control panel and different pickguard. 

 

Without going the custom Tiny Tone route (which would be good, but being custom I guess gets expensive), does anyone know where I can get a one-piece plastic one just off the shelf? Something like this to go with my USA Sunburst Jazz:

 

 

It seems Fender produced them for a while in the 80s and 90s https://www.talkbass.com/threads/fender-jazz-bass-with-a-one-piece-pickguard-american-traditional-90s-mim-etc.857688/

Hi, at customopickguards.eu they'll make any pickguard in any shape you want. They have good service and are based in Amsterdam.

WD do this one.  Is this the kind of thing you are looking for?  Plenty of colour options.
