I just replaced the white pick guard that came on my player series P bass with a fender tortoise shell pick guard because I think it's a more classic look. I had to sand just a bit around one pick up, but otherwise it fit perfectly. All the holes lined up exactly where they should be. Very happy with it.

Purchased as a replacement for the OEM white unit on my MIM Player P Bass. Nick and the crew at Sweetwater did not know for certain if it would be applicable with the MIM series so I figured it was worth a try. Fits great, screw holes, controls and output jack all fit perfectly. The only difference I can see is the Player has truss rod adjustment at the head stock where the USA guitars, I guess, have it at the body so there is a small access cutout on the pickguard. That raises aquestion, who cares?

The tortoise shell looks so good in place of the stock white one and it has improved my playing by at least 5%. LOL!

I bought this "scratchplate" to wrap up a project of mine for building a new Fender MIM Precision Bass. I bought a sunburst body and rose wood fingerboard neck over several months last year. And put the electronics and hardware from my 2021 Buttercream Fender Player P-bass into them. This pickguard was to be the icing on the cake. It was this or an Anodized gold guard when I had the sunburst body attached the Buttercream's Maple neck. The scratch plate fit without issue. I've strung it with LaBella Tapewounds it looks and sound really nice with a foam sponge at the bridge.

Still love the tortoise shell pickguard on my p bass.

I bought this to replace the stock pickguard on my American Performer. The screw holes match perfectly, but the tone control pot doesn't line up with the bottom hole. Beautiful pickguard for you p only folks.

It’s impossible to imagine a world without Fender guitars, and if you’re like many of the guitarists at Sweetwater, then Fender not only made the first guitar you ever bought " they made the last one too! From building the first mass-produced solidbody electric guitars and basses in the 1950s to creating some of the most influential amplifier designs in history, it’s no wonder why Fender is one of the biggest names in the business. As one of the world’s largest Fender dealers, we have countless guitars, basses, amps, effects pedals, and accessories in stock and ready to ship, whenever you need them. We’re always getting our hands on their latest creations, and there’s nothing we love more than to tell our customers all about them! So, whether you’re looking for your first axe or a Custom Shop creation, make sure to give your Sweetwater Sales Engineer a call at (800) 222-4700.
