Would a regular Precision pickguard fit a US Fury?

The title pretty much says it. I have a US Peavey Fury and need to source a pickguard. Would a regular Fender pickguard fit? Anyone tried it?

Alternately, anyone have a Fury pickguard they're not using?

Thanks for the replies. My Fury had a replacement guard on it when I got it. It's not warped but it has a sort of x-ray skull and crossbones motif that doesn't suit me. I'd like to source an original guard for it and pass this one along to someone who would appreciate it (what's the best pickguard for metal?....)

It's actually a very nice pickguard, if you like that sort of thing.

Could you post a picture? I could definitely be interested in that!

Sure, here's a couple pics of the bass with pickguard.

It's not perfect, it has a few scrapes near the treble horn, and it's a weird whitish-purplish color (the image) on a black background.

I considered just spraying it black since it's a good fit for the bass, but it seems a shame to ruin a cool guard that someone might want.

It should be enough for whoever you send it off to to use as a template. I wouldn't bother spraying either, as it usually winds up wearing down and looking cruddy.

I bought a Fury with a broken pickguard a few years ago, and called Peavey and they had them in stock! Totally amazing customer service.

Please be aware that there are TWO pickguard designs for the Fury - the flat bottom and the curved bottom - and they are not fully interchangeable. they will install, but night not cover all the cavities properly.

Replacement pickgurads ARE available from several of the 3rd party makers.

So I called Peavey and the only thing they have is a pickguard from different model bass, that has the curved edge near the bridge (I need the one with the straight line near the bridge, so the one they have may not fit right). And they only have it in white... I would prefer black.

Pickguard Heaven has the correct pickguard but for a three ply guard with shipping the cheapest price is $54.

Anyone have an old Peavey Fury pickguard to sell or trade?
