What's the spacing of the pot holes for Warmoth basses?

Dave Starr will be making a harness for my J-style SSB and wanted to confirm the spacing.

Also, for my Jack Rout: 7/8"(22mm) side jack, he suggested:

Ultimate Input Jack and Mounting Plate for Fender Telecaster

The Ultimate Fender Telecaster Jack Plate NEW! Say goodbye to the crappy stock tele jack and cup and install one of these! Practically indestructible and solid as a rock. Secured with 2 screws that go into the wood at an angle, and the switchcraft jack threads right into the socket jack plate ...

That'll work, right?

Thirdly, he also said that the 1/8”-3/16” thickness of the wood for the rear routed cavity will be workable with his LH 250k 3/8" tall threads (pots).

I hope this'll be ok. I'm sure the guy knows his business, but I'm hoping this build had no snafus.

Those 'Electrosocket' jacks are great, I use them on lots of instruments.

You could use that jack and mounting plate or just use a "football" style plate and a 1/4" jack.

AFAIK the SSB J Bass top rout uses a standard size J Bass control plate. As yours is rear rout, if the harness is made to fit a J Bass spacing it should be fine.

Makes sense.

Thanks guys. I think I'm good to go.

IIRC the hole spacing is the same but the location is slightly different from the top rout (I tried putting a pickguard over a rear rout body from the showcase and it was a no go)
