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?
