Just replaced the off-white pickguard on my Fender Deluxe American Precision with a tortoise shell one. Thought you guys might want to see some before and after pictures. :-)

That DOES change the whole look of that bass. Nice!

good call man. white pickguards really take away from the beauty of a nice burst imo.

I like it!

Lovin' it. Makes the instrument look warmer and more classic.

Good swap. I'm not crazy about the white pickguard against anything but light-colored bodies. It's amazing what a difference it can make.

It's pretty good quality. Seems just as good as the original.
