Width At 24 Fret

[theodoropoulos]

I am planning to use a tremolo with 5.631 cm string spacing http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Bridges,_tailp...b=Specs#details

My question is:

for a 25.5" scale ,is the width 5.8 cm at the 24th fret ,enough?

Draw it out and judge for yourself.

1/8" is typical between the E strings and the fretboard edge.

It should be fine. This trem is designed to work with Strat's neck width of 2.1875" at the 22 fret. The bridge you spec has a slightly wider spacing of 2.210". Your fretboard extension should follow the lines of each side of the neck...not become parallel at any point. This should continue the same string-to-edge spacing as at the 22 fret.

But, as Metalhead28 offers, there's no harm in sketching out to confirm.

Peace,

Mark
