SV-1 build

Hi FrankeWashie. My nut to 12th crown is 12.75 inch. I have clamped the neck up against the front pickup and put the 2 E strings on just to check. The high E is exactly 12.75 From 12th crown to the front of the channel. According to my meter, pressing at the 12th, the note is one octave above open string. That’s with the high E string saddle forward most.

The rest I would to know their measurements please, so I’ll wait to see before drilling & screwing. Need some beer or bourbon or wine, only got tea, coffee and water.

I've done a quick measure up and I've got slightly over 12.75 at the Low E and more or less similar across the board

From memory when I set this up, the store I bought it from(the FR trem) reminded me to check against scale length and shift the saddle mounting to whichever locking holes gave me the better intonation adjustment. Which is what I did. I think. There has been much time and beer since I did this. Hope that helps?
