Doesn't anyone happen to know what the minimum dimensions are for a rectangular pickgaurd blank for a jazzmaster?

Right, but I am buying a blank in a different material and I need to know which of those dimension sets a JM guard will fit into.  I would like to purchase in the smallest dimensions possible due to cost.

I'm pretty sure the minimum dimensions you would need are 14x11".

You can squeeze it into about 8.5 x 15" - I buy 9x15.5" blanks from WD Music.
