Hi guys,
I'm looking for a white pickguard for my Fender Custom Classic Jazz Bass 4 and I can't find it available in any dealer, eBay or classified.
Anyone knows where to buy it or the Fender part number?
I'd like to swap my tortoise factory one installed in my candy Tangerine Custom Classic for that white one mentioned: 
Maybe any of you have one that would like to trade?
Thanks a lot! |

I had this white pearl made by pickguardian for 60 bucks. It is thick.I have not seen a pickguard this thick except on Entwistle(sp) bass.

I’ve never ordered anything from them myself but they seem to be quite popular and get plenty of good reviews.

All I can find mounted in these basses is tortoise, except one in white pearl: http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksi...-All-Categories |

The neck is longer, the nut is moved farther, so the bridge and the two pickups need to be higher on the body (34" scale), hence the need for another pickguard design. 
It seems Custom Classics (Custom Shop) and American Deluxes share the same pickguard shape...
