Seems like the only vendor I can find has a nonfunctional website! Pickguard Haven! Maybe cause I’m looking to order from Canada? I don’t know!!

so where can I find a pickguard for the new style Yamaha BB basses? I have a BB 434m coming and will want to switch that beige pickguard to a BWB guard.

many help would be appreciated thx

I've used these guys in the past:

Home - Pickguard Planet

YAMAHA BASSES - Pickguard Planet

I bought a pickguard for an '83 Ibanez Roadstar II from them. It's unique to that specific year, yet they had one available and it fit perfectly.

It was kind of pricey (I remember it was about $45), but it was brand new and it looks perfect.


In the event they don't have a particular pickguard in their catalog, you can send them the pickguard you want to copy and they'll use that as a template.

As mentioned above, Pickguard Planet can get it done (I have worked with them). Pickguardian can as well (I have not worked with them). Both have mixed reviews for customer service but their actual products seem right on target if you get them the right information to start.

have you thought about going commando? i like the look of mine without a pickguard. i left the screws in to keep the paint from chipping around the holes.View attachment 5031187

That looks sharp! I have the same Teal Blue currently being shipped to me in the mail, and I also don't like what looks to be an off-white pick guard. I think I would try to find some black screws maybe to hide them a little better, but I actually like this look better than the pick guard look.
