Hi all,
I would be grateful if I could get some guidance on a fret spacing issue I may (or may not) have.
During the build of my MMB-5, (Stingray style 5 sting bass) I've been checking dimensions etc for positioning the bridge.
I noticed the fret spacing on my MMB-5 neck was slightly different than another 5 string with the same scale length.
Although not out by much, what is considered the accepted tolerance for fret differences, and how much will it effect each note? The MMB-5 neck has not been dressed as yet, and all the dimensions are to the crown of the frets.
I've attached the dimensions compared to the Stew Mac calculator.
