Meegs666 Posted July 8, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2004 how would i calculate my neck width if it is going to be a 2 inch nut with a bridge that has a string spread of 2 9/16 inch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krizalid Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 try www.buildyourguitar.com there's some kind of string calculator if i'm not mistaken that can help you to know the width of neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
litchfield Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 On a piece of paper draw it up fullsized. Use your 2" nut and your bridge. That will give you your string spread and neck taper, which I think is what you mean. Add 1/16" to 1/8" to it on one side (ie, make it 2 1/8" nut and 2 5/8" bridge), and then you will have it. Make absolutely sure it is to exact scale before relying on those measurements Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
