Pickguard Question...

Sign in to disble this ad
I hope I'm in the right section...

I'm wanting to get a clear pickguard for my Squier Vintage Modified Jazz bass.
Just looking around, I find stuff like this:
NEW - Pickguard For Fender Jazz Bass, CLEAR ACRYLIC | eBay

But what I really want to know is:
1.) If this will fit my bass.
2.) Or if there is a certain Fender model that has the exact same size pickguard that is on my Squier, such as one of these models:
FenderŪ Jazz Bass Pickguards

Any help is always appreciated.
Thanks.

One would assume if yours is a jazz bass it should fit. I am not sure if squires are different to fenders, I'm pretty sure they are the same. I have got several clone pickguards and they have all fit. The holes have all lined up even. But I don't know of I've just been lucky. I'm pretty sure it would fit.

It will most likely fit. The problem is with the definition of the word fit. I've had jazz pickguards that required a bit of Dremeling on the pickup hole and/or the neck pocket.

Then there's the screw holes, which matters a lot more on a clear pickguard.

I don't know. Good luck.
