I couldn't find the info on W's website or this forum. Anybody knows what is the width of their natural masked binding on a Strat? I believe it's around 3/16"but I would like to be sure.
 
On my Tele it's 3/8", on my Strat, it's 1/8". The Tele sorta wraps around the edge like you'd expect a real binding to do, while the Strat is more like an accent pinstripe. If you've got some 3/16" tape, I'm sure that would look fine.
 
They offer 2 widths.  The 2nd is bigger and an upcharge on top of the masked binding charge.  For a flat top, I think the masked binding is the thickness of the laminate top, 1/8".  But logistically, it's probably determined by the width of the tape as determined by which ever manufacturer they use.
