25.5" afaik. I'm not sure what the nut width is though, on the Fib site it says they do either 42mm or 43.5mm but this feels like neither.

Nice guitar - I like your dog too.
I think I hate being indecisive.

Wow, you weren't kidding about the Fibenare - that is stunning.
You should get a Tremol-no for the Floyd. That way you can have it fixed, down-bend only, or floating at a twist of a knob. I'm probably going to stick one in the Vigier just so that I could lock the bridge and downtune it comfortably should I be unexpectedly needed to.

Ta, he's nearly 20 :o !! Had him since I was 8, it will be a very very sad day when he passes. I'm probably closer to him than I am most of my family  :lol:

Cheers Nolly :)

Pretty sure I'm going to just go for the cheaper option of 2 bits of wood though.

How are you getting on with the bridge pup?

As usual, I took way more attention to the pics than the words :lol: I just get my mind away with nice maple and burst :D

+1 to Tremol-no

Did some neck measurements as it didn't come with a spec sheet or anything.

Scale = 25.5"
Nut width = 42mm.  24th fret = 57mm
Radius = 10.5" - 21"
Depth = .825" at 1st - .905" at 12th

The dimensions on the usacg neck I've ordered are practically the same. The usacg has a straight 16" radius and is .05 thicker at the 1st fret and .05 thinner at the 12th.
