Am Pro Jag owners show me your pickguards
I'm currently debating switching out the pickguard on my Olympic white Am Pro Jag. I love the black on on it but the asshole in me wants to see what it might look like with a good mint or tort guard. Anyone here have either of those on this particular model/color that wouldn't mind showing me so i can get a good impression?

I'm bummed no one's replied to you yet! The Am Pro Jag is my next guitar, no question. Such a cool and unusual Jag!
I wish I had something to show you but sadly, I do not. However, Oly White is so classic and classy IMO, that you really REALLY can't go wrong with any colour pick guard.
In fact, I LOVE the black pg on that model in OW and think it really kind of sets it apart...reverse tuxedo look I guess. I think it stands out more whilst simultaneously blending in. That probably makes no sense but it definitely did in my head!
But I too would also seriously consider a killer tort pg because there is absolutely no Universe in existence where that EVER looks bad.
I'd check out the Spitfire website and go to the gallery – it's enough to just drool over, but it may give you an idea/sense of what it would look like.
I'd love to see what you end up getting!

Not my Jag, but one of my pickguards.

I like Olympic White with tort guards the best (and OW is the color I like best with tort guards - by far. ) Just a classic look, and what I chose when I purchased my AVRI62 Jazzmaster. Although I realize that the controls on the AmPro Jag are different than on classic Jag layouts, the chrome control plates are the same size and shape as vintage. So, basically it will look about the same as traditional Jags with whatever color pickguard. Lots of pix of OW Jaguars out there.
An OW AmPro Jag with tort would be a great companion to my 62RI JM - kinda the iconic "surf guitar" look. Hmmmm.......
