    Ha! I agree; similar to Nightswan Specs. No drop tuning, all mine are in standard.

    If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, quacks like a.... what else could it be?

    Unless you're referring to a very specific product from a specific manufacturer vs. other items that perform the same function, but originate elsewhere?

    24.75" w/ R1 nut ain't bad with a Floyd, unless you're looking to drop tune on small gauges.

    12th Fret to Nut is 12.375 so half of 24.75 and top end of Fretboard to bridge saddles hits 24.75 perfectly. Presumably a Conversion Neck based on those two measurements.

    Thanks for the info and direction!

    I want to agree with just the first sentence of the previous post

    Hard to measure it by eye , over the internet

    Kinda looks 25.5 to me

    Measure nut to 12th fret, if it's 1/2 of 24.75", then it's a 24.75" neck

    Next, put it in a standard tele body's pocket and see if you can get 24.75" to a saddle...if you can, it's a conversion neck. If you can't, it's for something else entirely

    PS could also be 24", 25", 25.1" etc

    I picked up an unusual old 1988 neck on eBay for a Super Tele Project, but, after receiving the body and a second neck I had coming I discovered that the eBay Neck was not a 25.5" Scale / R3 Nut neck as described but a 24.75" Scale / R1 Neck. Based on researching Warmoth Conversion Necks and what a Conversion Neck is...3/4" difference in fretboard length, location of frets modified, etc...took some pics next to a 25.5" Scale 22 Fret Neck for comparison...Conversion Neck?
