FACTS OF STRATS

 

 

List of vintage Stratocaster measurements

These are the measurements of vintage Stratocasters taken during “The Galaxy of Strats” photo shoots.

Note that the thickness of the neck is taken at 1st and 12th fret to avoid transtion area. 6th fret location is also added as most of the necks are not tapered straight.

Width of the neck is measured at the nut, 12th and 16th. Note that the width at 16th is where the neck joins the body. The width at the end of the neck is wider.
