Tort pickguard recommendations - MRM active Precision

[Phreaky Phriday]

I picked up an active MIM Player Plus Precision Bass this past weekend and love it - but I want to replace the mint pickguard with a tort one.

Does anyone have recommendations? I'm having a bit of a hard time finding options given the knob count of the active version

What’s your budget?

You could buy a cheap 13 hole tort guard, hope the screws line up and drill two new holes yourself for the control configuration you need.

Or, you could do a tracing of the mint guard and send it to a custom maker like spitfire, lavaguards, or avantguard.

The former could run you as little as ten bucks if you don’t mind the low quality tort. The latter will run you $150-$350 if you want the top shelf tort.

Thanks for the follow-up, i never considered trying to drill out a cheapo

Budget is under $150 (over $50 seems like a lot for a pickguard, but i guess the tort world is different)

Since the initial post, i stumbled on a few options that look like they should fit - will probably go with WD

links of what i found in case someone stumbles on this post in the future:

I had Pickguard Heaven make one in Red Tort for my Fallout.

It turned out great IMHO. It was 72.00 plus tax and shipping. Red Tort usually costs more than other colors.
