Thread: STA-1 Ash Body Strat - Neck Pocket Dimension

  1. #1
    Hi,

    Does anyone know the neck pocket dimension for the STA-1 Ash strat?

    I was thinking of getting just the kit minus hardware so I can use it as a substitute body for my standard strat.

    Thanks.

    Hi Hidden Dog,
    what dimension are you after, the longest length (to centre of pocket) and the width ?
    I've got 3 of these kits built but I'd have to remove the neck to get the length measurement.
    Dimensions should be the same as a standard ST-1 kit, I have one of them half built, I can post the dimensions tonight if you like ?

    Hi Wokkaboy,

    Thanks I'm after the width length and depth of the neck pocket cavity as I was thinking of refitting my standard fender neck to the ash body and have it painted as a tobacco burst.

    I'll compare the dimension you have with my fender neck to see if it fits and if I should get the kit.

    Hi Hidden Dog,
    sorry it took a while, the pocket of the ST-1 is 73mm long to centre of pocket and 56mm wide, should be the same as the ash model
    Hope your neck fits !

    Flick an email to Dingobass@pitbullguitars.com - he's working on a STA-1 at the moment (http://www.pitbullguitars.com/commun...3#postid-20619).
