Questions & Answers
In the case of 5 strings, I am not certain. For four strings, the fretboard width changes as you increase the number of strings, but for five strings, you will need to check the variants. For fender j bass, I was able to fit it on the squire as well.
Selected User Reviews For (B55) Guitar Pickguard Fits Fender JB Jazz Bass ,4Ply Tortoise Red
Originally, my Jazzer had a white pickguard, but I needed a replacement to better match the classic style. As I was reluctant to pay thirty dollars for a licensed product, I immediately thought five bucks for a pickguard would only make me angry. A reviewer told me it would fit a Squier Jazz bass as well (I own a Squier as well) and it was a perfect fit with just a touch of sand paper on the neck part to make it work. For fifteen dollars, I felt like I was taking a chance. It was WAY quicker than I expected to get the pickguard. It should be noted that this is not a tortoise shell design. More of a swirl than a ring. aren't as shimmery as one might expect from a tortoise pickguard. Once I removed the original pickguard to replace it, I noticed that the shimmer was gone as well. The top section of the pickup section had to be sanded with sand paper in order to fit well. Despite this, I didn't use the pickguard with my bass because the top pickup does not have a cut between it and the knob board. Instead, there is a pocket where the top pickup sits, but it is barely visible. My Jazz appears naked in her sunburst glory at the opposite end of the room from my Precision (which comes with a real turtle.
The fit is perfect and the look is amazing.
This pickguard is very nice, but it seems like nobody knows how to make a tortoise pickguard that looks vintage. I'm uncomfortable with how sharp the details are. On an old Fender tortoise guard, the details are kind of fuzzy and blurry, as if you were viewing a blurry photograph. Additionally, there is an issue with the fit of the guard where it meets the control plate (Jazz bass). I'd say it's one of the better ones I've seen.
Love the color. This is a very reasonable price and takes a little trimming to look perfect.
Very good quality but it needs a little adjustment to fit right the rest of it is perfect.
The white one that came with my Squier had a boring 1 ply construction. I purchased this pickguard to replace it. I found the neck and pickup cutouts to be too small, but all of the holes lined up. Therefore, I had to spend some time filing them out, but once I did it, everything fell into place right away. Except for that issue, it is very well made, the edges are smooth and the red tortoise color is very pleasing.
