Any experience with Fender MIJ Heritage series?

Does anyone own the Heritage Late 60s Jazz MIJ? Just jumped on one of these online.

Anyone know of which aftermarket or fender pickguard fit these jazz basses?

Fender FSR 2024 MIJ Traditional II Late 60s Jazz​

The name is slightly different on this one but I think it has the same lineage. If I can find another like it, I plan to snatch it up.

I picked up a 70's Heritage Jazz a couple months ago. I put some Fender Pure American 74 pickups in it, put on a black "traditional" pick guard, and added a hipshot bass xtender.

Sits just under 9lbs too.

Very nice bass.

If it's not too late:

I bought a Fender 11 hole pick guard to put on the Late 60's MIJ bass you referenced.

The holes matched up but the contours were slightly off / a little tight. An X-acto knife and fine grit sandpaper were enough to get a good fit without any puckering.

HTH...

I took this picture just after purchase of the pickguard when confirming that the screw holes lined up. It was very close, only requiring slight tweaking, - mainly some trimming around the neck.
