Description
Fender’s Pure Vintage line exists for players who care about getting the details right, and this ’63 Precision Bass® pickguard is a prime example. Wherever possible, Fender produces these parts on the same tooling used to build originals back in the day, and the material choices echo what their vendors supplied throughout the ’50s and ’60s. The result isn’t a modern approximation of vintage — it’s built to the same recipe.
This particular guard is finished in Mint Green and constructed as a 3-ply piece, giving it the layered depth and subtle aging potential that single-ply replacements can’t replicate. It’s drilled for a 13-hole mount, matching the control and pickup layout of ’63-era Precision Basses, so it’s a natural fit for anyone restoring or refreshing a P Bass from that period — or simply chasing the look on a newer build.
- 13-hole mount pattern
- Mint Green finish
- 3-ply construction
- Modeled on original ’63 Precision Bass® tooling and materials
If your current guard has gone brittle, cracked, or just doesn’t match the era your bass is trying to evoke, this is a straightforward swap that pays off visually every time you pick the instrument up. Pair it with the right hardware and pickup and you’ve got a genuinely convincing vintage rig.
