Strong match

Who this is for

  • Changing the look of an American Standard Jazz Bass
  • Replacing a cracked, yellowed, or scratched original guard
  • Matching a rebuild back to correct Jazz Bass spec

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Precision Bass or any body with a different pickup layout
  • Jazz Basses with a different screw-hole count
  • Anyone wanting new pickups or wiring in the deal

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Detail 01

10-hole layout

Screw pattern must match your body exactly. Jazz Bass guards exist in other hole counts that will not line up.

Detail 02

JJ pickup routing

Cut for two Jazz-style single coils. It will not cover a P/J or humbucker route.

Detail 03

Black Pearl finish

Swirled pearloid pattern rather than flat black. Each sheet varies slightly, so no two guards look identical.

Detail 04

American Standard cut

Contours follow that body shape. Vintage-reissue and import Jazz bodies have small outline differences that show at the edges.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Count your screw holes and check the pickup routes before ordering
  2. 02Screws and pickups are not included
  3. 03Expect minor edge differences if your bass is not American Standard

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Will this fit my Precision Bass?

No. It is cut for a Jazz Bass body with two J pickups. A P Bass has a different outline and pickup route.

02Does it come with screws?

No. Reuse the screws from your original guard, or buy a set separately.

03How do I know if I need 10-hole?

Count the screw holes on your current pickguard. If it is not ten, this one will not line up with your body.

04Is the pearl pattern uniform?

No. Pearloid material is swirled, so the pattern varies from guard to guard and will not exactly match another piece.
