Need some measurements from a warwick 5-string

[TravisMoore]

I am actually considering turning my bass build into a 5 string, so I was wondering if someone could help me out by giving me a few measurements from their 5 string Warwick?


I have already found out that the nut is 45mm but I need to know how wide the fretboard is at the 24th fret?

Also what is the string spacing at the bridge?


(this is all non-BN)


Cheers,
Travis

Are we talking a 4 string or 6 string?

5 strings =D

Oh, duh. I thought you were converting one of your basses into a 5 string. *Doh*

The 24'th fret of my 5 stringer $$ is 6.5 cm

The bridge can vary, but mine is measured at 6.8 cm

cheers dude,

With the bridge I mean the space inbetween the strings.

For some reason I thought the exact same thing.

I just measured the distance between two saddle pieces with no width adjustment and it looked something like 16mm, i think it is 16.5mm. But you can have it a bit wider or narrower of course. If you leave the saddle pieces set to center, the thicker strings will naturally have a smaller distance edge-to-edge, if you 're specifically interested in that. Center-to-center will be the same of course.
