Which rout for Mastery bridge/vibrato in new Jazzmaster build?

Hi everyone, I'm new here.

I'm in the planning stages of a Jazzmaster build. I want to use a Mastery bridge and vibrato but I don't know which rout to specify when ordering my Warmoth JM body. "Mastery" isn't an option in the list but "Standard Jazzmaster® Bridge And Tremolo" is -- are they equivalent?
 
Yes, Their M1 bridge and OMV vibrato are intended as drop-in replacements for US-spec JMs and Jags.

Just make sure you get the right 'thimbles' from Mastery.
 
Thanks for the reply!

And do we know for sure that the Warmoth JM body is US-spec?

I can only see one thimble on Mastery's site (https://masterybridge.com/product/mt-set-of-2-solid-stainless-steel-thimbles/) which is the one that comes with their OMV bridge/vibrato kit (https://masterybridge.com/product/omv-kit/). I've read elsewhere on this forum and on offsetguitars.com that the holes in the body might need to be slightly enlarged for these thimbles to fit properly.
