Stratocaster neck measurment

Post by matte30is »

Can anyone measure their fender mia or mim strat necks for me? I need the thickness of the neck where it rests in the pocket and the width of the neck in that same area.

Thanks Iceman, just a simple conversion from mm to inches and I'm good

Height 25.4mm = 1 inch
width 56.35mm = 2 7/32 roughly
