I would like to see a black JM with a handpainted swirl pickguard (as seen on another thread which I forgot).

Here's a dakota red Mustang with a factory made WD pickguard with an abandoned color called tie dye blue:
They also later had a color called tie dye blue and pink, which I believe had more pink. They still offer tie dye pink.

It was a Fender Japan pickguard. I don't know if they still make them.

Here you go:

I've bought all three of them and they fit perfectly on my Japanese Jazzmasters.

Re: Jazzmaster pickguard options
Do you recall where you found the gold guard you put on the left sunburst MIJ Jazzmaster? Do the allparts gold guards fit MIJ?
