Many of Fender�s Pure Vintage parts are crafted where possible on the same tooling and machinery as our original-era Fender parts. Our Pure Vintage pickguards utilize many of the same materials as those used from our original vendors in the �50s and �60s for an eminently classic vibe.

Same as any other pickguard. I build guitars as a hobby, and the only way this one is different, is because it says Fender on the package

Beautiful color. Looks nice on my mid-late 70’s P-bass. Fits snugly, maybe too snug in places (?). I had to force it into place. Eleven of the 13 holes line up perfectly, but the two on the lower front horn do not align. The holes are about 1/4 visible in the direction that would require the horn to be pulled down. It’s not enough for me to risk forcing the screws. I’ll keep it and mock it up, but it is not a perfect fit.

Put this on my 2017 American Pro bass. No problems with fitting, and all holes lined up perfectly. Love the look and quality of this piece.

Somewhat expensive, but that's the way it goes if you want a decent tortoise shell pattern. It's what I was looking for though and I'm happy with it.

Despite what I have been told, it will NOT fit an American Performer. The pickup and 13 screw holes are fine. But this PJ model has a 3rd knob where the jack normally goes. On the original pickguard for this model the hole is 1/2" closer to the others, and further away from the edge of the cavity. But the pot is much bigger than the jack. So unless you're willing to route out your new bass you're out of luck. You could also drill a hole in your new pickguard but then the old one will be visible

This is a fantastic piece to replace your existing 13-hole pickguard. It should be noted it has the truss rod cutout on the body, though not all precision basses will have a truss rod accessed this way. Aesthetically it looks amazing to brighten up your Bass, the 3-ply W-B-W looks really nice.

Review for Gold Anodized Aluminum PickguardMakes my Fender Player Precision bass look classic. Easy to replace. The one thing to note is that this pickguard has 10 holes/screws while most of the Fender P basses have 13 holes/screws. There is one screw hole near the volume control that does not have wood under it. I just glued the screw in place for looks. If you have a sunburst bass with a maple neck, this is the look to go with!Review for Tortoise Shell PickguardJust perfect. Original Fender part. Makes my Fender P Bass look awesome. Only concern is there is no shielding tape on the back of the pickguard, so minus one star. I don't notice any hum or anything but the other pickguards I have tried had silver shielding tape on the back.

It is what it is and fits perfectly to a custom built 54 style P Bass. I have bought some alternatives before and they're slightly different size so happy that is spot but you'd expect that from a genuine Fender part.

Fits my Fender American Special P-bass perfectly, and the truss rod cutout hole is big enough to allow adjustments without taking the pick guard off. The previous white one had a cutout hole that was too small to allow the tool in. This is a beautiful color and look for my sunburst bass, and looks so much nicer than that original white one. Genuine Fender may cost a little more, but it's worth it for quality and fit.

60th Fender Anniversary P Bass. one of 1000, its original pick guard is off white with age, left original plastic on original pick guard until it began fraying, when i peeled it off it left a negative of the 60th anniversary diamond and the american flag, which was awesome. that said, this aged pearl pick guard looks amazing! I added 2 picks to the page, once they load, check them out. The pick guard went on with no issues what so ever, every hole lines up perfectly, it fit the pickups and the control knobs and output exactly. the only issue i had was that due to the new pick guard being 4 layers thick (white, black, white, pearl) rather than 3, i had to leave the top smooth washer off and thread the nuts directly onto the the pick guard. All said and done, like i said, it was easy to install, and it looks gorgeous!

Great quality (Fender factory). Looks great - installed perfectly. Gives my P-Bass the exact look I was going for. It's a little "yellower" than the factory guard, and not as bright as the straight white pearl guard. Truly looks "aged" in the coloration. Perfect match.
