6 string neck width


Recommended Posts

ok i'm looking on the ibanez site at this bass and it's a 5 string, that has a 76mm wide 24th fret, but this 6 string is only 64mm wide at the 24th fret.. that seems like it's backwards but that's what's on their site. I need to use the EDA body but make it a 6 string bass instead of 5. Any one have the correct dimensions or can confirm these for the 6 string neck width, please and thank you.

Hi Derek!!! B)

A see this info, about i make this plans to download section. It´s a error of Ibanez page. If you see the Ibanez Japan page, the bass eda measures are correct. In Ibanez.com says "25,5 scale", in Ibanez Japan page says "34 scale". Bye My friend!!! :D

Note that bass strings are much thicker, plus the string spacing is wider. So IMO the measurements could be right... :D
