    Hey Adam, looks good. Your measurements are they from the crown of the 12th fret to the saddles and are the saddles wound all the way forward ? a G type scale is 24.75" = 628mm so 12th fret to high E saddle should be about half that ->314mm. The low E string will need to be further back to make up for the string thickness so it will end up being about 317-318mm, will the low E string saddle move that far back ?
    Also just double check front side of nut (FB site) to 12th fret crown is about 313/314mm
