Standard Fender Tremolo Routing

[LarsXI]

I've searched extensively for measurements to make a trem template, and there are three measurements I haven't been able to find anywhere. I need to know the length of the entire back cavity, from the edge closest to the neck to the far edge. Also, I need to know the width of the chamber in which the sustain block is located. Finally, I need to know the alignment of the spring chamber relative to the the sustain block route. Knowing the distance from the right or left edge of the spring chamber to the right/left edge of the block route would be sufficient.

If anyone has insight to offer, it would be appreciated.

Ah, thank you kindly.

Isn't there a pinned topic for this? Or does that only contain FR-style cavities?

Regardless, make sure you measure the trem on hand ---don't rely on someone else's measurements. I've found quite a lot of variation among trems.
