Looked in Trem Topic and Can't find

[Dragyn]

Hey Folks;

Refinishing a start knockoff and have a brand new wilkenson trem for it. I have tried searching all of the topics but haven't been able to find a link to get dimensions or a download drawing of the trem routing and stud placements. It has the trem hole routed for a vintage trem only with stud or screw holes drilled.

ANy one have a link or a site.

Thanks in advance.

The stud placement is really dependant upon the scale length. (Distance from nut to the saddle) Strats usually use 25 1/2" scale with Strat Trem bridge mounting holes (6) at 24 13/64" What you really need to do is know the scale length and find the appropriate position for the saddles and then find the stud placement. If you can't make a mock-up, making a template of the Wilkinson Trem and checking scale measurements would be the way to go.

I'll add that a Wilkinson will fit in a standard Strat trem rout as long as the studs are the right distance apart.

Thanks for the info folks. The only reason why I was questioning and looking was that at warmoth they show a modified route out for the wilky trem and I was looking for the reason why and the dimensions.

Probably clearance issues. I built a guitar from some random parts and used a Wilkinson on it. The body had a standard rout and it worked out just fine. It might not be a straight drop-in on other guitars, but it's not like trying to install a Floyd Rose either.
