Shaped, inlaid, fretted and finished—feels and plays great! Hard rock maple finished in clear satin polyurethane, with an inlaid "skunk stripe" down the back. Other features include: The frets are nicely finished. The string nut is slotted and shaped from PPS plastic with a flat bottom. Indian Rosewood fretboard with dot inlays and side markers. Screwholes for attaching to the body are not drilled. Has a single-action truss rod with a 4mm adjusting nut at the peghead (we recommend a 4mm Allen Truss Rod Wrench for adjusting neck relief). Peghead is drilled for 6-in-line tuning machines. 10mm-diameter holes fit sealed gear tuners with threaded peghead bushings. Specifications: Scale length: 25-1/2" (647.70mm) Width at nut: 1-11/16" (42.86mm) Width at 22nd fret: 2-3/16" (55.56mm) Fretwire: .045" high x .095" wide (1.14mm x 2.41mm) Fretboard radius: 9-1/2" (241.30mm) Fret count: 22 String post spread: 4-11/16" (119.06mm) Approximate heel length: 3-5/8" (92.07mm) Fits neck pockets measuring 2-3/16" (55.56mm) wide x 3" (76.20mm) long x 5/8" (15.88mm) deep. Neck thickness (approximate; not including fret): .860" (21.84mm) at the 1st fret .880" (22.35mm) at the 6th fret .890" (22.61mm) at the 12th fret Ideally, the neck should just drop into the neck-pocket, or be a little snug. Don't force the neck into the pocket. If the body is unfinished, remember that the finish will make the neck pocket smaller with lacquer build up on the edge of the rout. Be sure to compensate for the finish buildup or the neck will be too tight after finishing.
