Greetings,

When W moves the neck pickup bridgeward for a 24 fret neck, how far is the pickup moved?
 
I am not sure I have ever seen Warmoth publish the exact distance but math tells us the extra 2 frets take about 3/4" more fretboard so the movement is likely about that much.
 
Here's what the Warmoth Body of Tonal Discovery (it was routed for both regular and 24 repo) shows:

Here are the dimensions of the humbucker rout:

Using this information it should be quite simple to calculate the distance:

Also, on an unrelated note: does anyone know how to remove old price sticker residue from a metal ruler?

Naphtha. Acetone could remove the black enamel in the numbers and dashes..

Eyeballing the ruler, it looks like the pickup is shifted about ~11/16"(?)
