This 'Fender' branded replacement part is made from quite thick brass, with a generous coating of chromium and is very well rounded and finished off. The holes were all drilled prior to the chrome plating and so there are no rough edges and no flaking of the plating. It is a perfect fit on both '60s and '70s style Jazz Basses and also fitted straight onto the Tokai Jazz Sound bass, which I bought mine to use on, with no adjustment necessary. If you want a high quality, chrome silver control plate for your Jazz Bass (clone), look no further!
