From Warmoths website:
Fender pioneered the detachable neck concept 50 some years ago. To this day, they continue to use the same basic dimensions on most of their offerings. Many other manufacturers have adopted these same dimensions into some of their own products (Kramer, ESP, Ibanez, Schecter, etc.).
Unfortunately, this is not universal and therefore problems of fit do arise. Warmoth has held to the Fender dimensions in all our offerings (exceptions noted).
To check compatibility of non Fender instruments, the simplest method is direct comparison. In lieu of this, the critical dimensions for guitars are: Neck pocket depth 5/8”, length 3”, and width 2-3/16”. Scale length (measure from nut to 12th fret x 2) is 25-1/2”, distance from nut to 12th fret, 12 3/4”, to the heel (not extended fingerboard) is 18-7/16”. Distance from heel to midpoint of bridge saddle adjustment is 7-1/8”.
The heel shape of Strat® necks is rounded at the end, Teles® are squared. Strat® necks will fit Tele® bodies but show a gap at the corners. Tele® necks may not intonate on a Strat® body without neck pocket modification
Attachments are pictorial specs for fender necks.
