For my JR, I had to flatten the bottom of the neck heel and as a result it sat lower in the neck pocket. The pickguard sat snuggly underneath in the gap. I did carefully keep an eye on the neck break angle and effect it would have with the bridge. My bridge replacement sat lower than the kit supplied one so no issues. I think from memory when running a long rule down the centre of the neck it cleared the top of bridge by 1/16th of an inch
