Single coil spacing on Scratchplate
« on: August 16, 2007, 07:05:48 PM »
Hi Guys.
A friend of mine is making my a custom scratchplate but the example I have given him is cut for a Humbucker, Can anyone tell me the angle etc for a singlecoil bridge on a strat style scratchplate (if their are any other measurements I need to know, can you let me know.)
Thanks in advance guys

as long as its more than 3/4" away from the start of the string/bridge saddle its ok

Just made a quick pdf of the scratchplate from the AutoCAD drawings that I've got.  Drop me your email address on a PM and I'll send it across.

It doesn't show the whole width as it's printed on A4.
Advice worth what you just paid for it.
