F-spaced Tune-0-matic

[gidora]

Does anyone know if a Fender spaced Tune-O-Matic exists? All the Tune-O-Matics I've located with suppliers like StewMac and Warmouth are Gibson spaced (2-2 1/16") and I am wondering if either Gretch or Fender has ever made an Adjust-O-Matic type deal for 25.5 " Fender scales and string spacing. The spacing on a Jazzmaster/Mustang bridge is about right at 2 1/4", but is that my only option?

Believe it or not, I am installing it on a custom-made 12 string with an solid mahogany body and a mid 60s Fender Villager neck. (Looks great by the way!) It's had a Gibson hardware setup for the longest time, but I'd like to correct the string spacing so it plays more like a Fender. It's using a re-notched Mustang bridge at the moment, but I'm still not happy. Has anyone used the Schaller 12 string tune-o-matic? Or know of anyway to mod a stock tune-o-matic type deal?

The one thing I'd like to avoid is retrofitting the stud and bridge combo - it is an SG after all.

can't say I have seen such a thing.

I don't know what the Rickenbacker 12 string bridges spacing is but that might be more fender like. looks like it might be a bit bigger than a gibson. thoght that'd eigther need new holes in the body or the bridge modifying to take tune-O-matic posts; which is possible but would be fiddly to do.

I've not seen the schaller 12 string tune-o-matic (and its not on their site!) but I should think that it'd be 2 and 1/16th spacing.

hope that's at least some help!
