Anyone in the EU do custom pickguards like Spitfire that will fit an MIJ Jazzmaster? I'm getting tired of the dull tort and would like something a bit more eyepopping.

Thanks for the info! Was hopping to find someone who wasn't in the UK because of Brexit shipping issues, but I'll definitely keep him in mind as I keep looking.gila_crisis wrote: ↑Mon Jan 18, 2021 1:41 amFor the pickguard check earlpilanz on ebay.co.uk:ToneFerDayz!!1! wrote: ↑Thu Jan 14, 2021 4:45 amAnyone in the EU do custom pickguards like Spitfire that will fit an MIJ Jazzmaster?

He has a huge array of options, and lately from him I got a new one for my MIJ Jazzmaster.
He was very kind to send me the template, prior order, so that I could check if it would match.
Look up Lavaguards on instagram, I believe their handle is @lava.guards and I think they are EU basedToneFerDayz!!1! wrote: ↑Thu Jan 14, 2021 4:45 amAnyone in the EU do custom pickguards like Spitfire that will fit an MIJ Jazzmaster?

I've checked through a lot of the links here as well as ebay, reverb etc. but not able to find anything. Also if anyone has the fender part no for the complete assembly that also be really helpful. Thanks !

Theoretically it should fit. Both Guitar Mill and Warmoth products are built to accept Fender products (unless otherwise specified) so they should fit. It's always best if you can get dimensions, though.wave existence wrote: ↑Sat Aug 21, 2021 9:04 amanyone know if a warmoth jag neck will fit a guitar mill jag body?
Unfortunately there's very few out there...it's a bit of a specialist thing. Staytrem are the best traditional looking option but definitely about a hundred bucks. Just be grateful you even have the option...a lot of us here remember all too well when there wasn't anything at all!mick jagstang wrote: ↑Sat May 28, 2022 5:49 pmI am going mad trying to find Mustang bridges with 2-1/16 (52mm) string spacing, and I really don't feel like shelling out 84 fucking dollars for one Johnny Marr/ Troy Van Leeuwen/ American Professional bridge! Does anyone know places that offer bridges in the smaller spacing size?
the AM-Pro is definitely worth the asking price, as is the Staytrem, which is only a few bucks more. The problem with the classic vibe bridges, if you can find one to purchase, is that they suffer the same problems as the $25 mustang bridges: loose manufacturing tolerances which result in bridge sinking and pot metal saddles, which can sound dull compared to the ones used on Am Pro and Staytrem. I'm a cheap bastard, but I find them worth the added cost.johnnysomersett wrote: ↑Sun May 29, 2022 1:43 amUnfortunately there's very few out there...it's a bit of a specialist thing.

Unlike other 'upgrades' (like the utterly pointless locking tuners snake oil) it's worth the money.
