7/8 Body and a 24" Neck

[duosonic]

I've seen some posts about being able to use a 24" neck on a 7/8's body.  Just wondering if anyone has successfully done this and what you had to do to make this work.

thanks

Tested it here in the office and it worked fine.  No different than any other assembly and setup.

Sorry, it has subsequently been disassembled and parted out to other projects....

Did you have to move the bridge at all or did you just adjust the saddles to intonate?

 

[Wyliee]

No moving the bridge.  Simply adjusted the saddles.

That's awesome that you did that. I assume it was to answer the question, and well.... that's pretty cool.

I did an s-type this past summer/fall and I'm really happy with how it plays and sounds.

I used a 1 5/8ths neck but I'm planning on eventually replacing that with a 1 11/16

Nah.  Did it a loooong time ago to make sure it really would work.  I'll have to see if I can find an image somewhere.
