VizEx Zevo VZ-013-White Pearl Jazz Bass Pickguard, 3-Ply, 10-Hole
Product description
If you need a replacement pickguard for a 4-string Jazz Bass, the VizEx Zevo VZ-013-White Pearl is made for a 10-hole mounting pattern and comes with matching screws.
Its White Pearl finish offers a way to change the bass’s appearance while covering the body beneath the guard during regular playing.
The key buying detail is fit: it is intended for USA/Mexico Standard Jazz Bass models and most Squier Affinity models, but other basses may need adjustment.
Quick overview
This is a 3-ply composite plastic pickguard with a stated thickness of 2.0mm to 2.3mm. Its pre-drilled holes are arranged for a standard 10-hole Jazz Bass setup, and the package includes 10 mounting screws. That makes it a practical replacement to consider when an existing guard is worn or when you want a different look without changing the instrument itself.
A double-layer protective film covers the surface during shipping and handling. Remove both layers after installation to reveal the gloss finish, the film can be easy to overlook. It’s a great fit if you want a White Pearl replacement with the mounting screws included and your bass matches the intended hole pattern.
How it fits
The stated fit is USA/Mexico Standard 4-string Jazz Bass and most Squier Affinity models. The 10 pre-drilled holes are intended to line up with standard mounting positions, so identifying the model alone is not enough: compare the hole pattern and overall dimensions with the product’s size diagram before buying.
Fit is less certain for other Squier models, vintage instruments, and off-brand basses. Differences between instruments can mean that light sanding or other minor adjustment is needed. If you need a replacement that drops into a less common instrument with no modification, this is a reason to look for a guard specifically matched to that bass instead.
Tips for day-to-day use
For a straightforward replacement, first compare the old guard’s outline and screw-hole positions with the size diagram. If they align, the included screws provide the listed mounting hardware. Avoid assuming that a similar-looking Jazz Bass will share the same dimensions, particularly if it is outside the stated compatible groups.
After fitting the guard, check both sides for protective film and peel off both layers. Leaving film in place can make the surface look dull rather than glossy. In a typical use case, this is a simple appearance refresh or a replacement for a scratched guard, it does not change the bass’s sound or electrical components according to the supplied product details.
Before you decide
Which basses is it intended for? It is designed for USA/Mexico Standard 4-string Jazz Bass models and most Squier Affinity models. Other models may need adjustment, so compare the dimensions and hole pattern first.
Are mounting screws included? Yes. The package contains one pickguard and 10 matching mounting screws.
What should I know about the finish? The White Pearl guard has a double-layer protective film. Remove both layers after installation to expose the gloss surface.
Final verdict
This pickguard makes sense when the 10-hole layout matches your bass and you want a 3-ply White Pearl replacement with screws in the package. Compared with choosing a guard mainly by color, checking the hole pattern and outline first is the more dependable way to narrow the choice. You may want to skip it if your instrument is a vintage, non-Affinity Squier, or off-brand model and you are not prepared to make minor fit adjustments.
