Stringray short scale pickup placement

[overdriver]

Hi folks

 

Can anyone with a short scale stingray tell me the distance from the nut to the centreline of the pickup, please?

It's 79cm on a 34" scale Stingray  for reference.

 

 

Thank you

You could, ahem, scale it down and it would be very close.

I have worked that out, and I just want to see if that's what they did, or is it in a different place.

I bought one and measured it for anyone who wants to drop an MM style pickup into their short or medium scale bass.

34 scale length pickup placement is 79 cm from the nut to the pickup centre line
 

30" scale length pickup placement is 69 cm from the nut to the pickup centre line

The ratio is roughly 1.1:1, so if you're doing a 32" scale, it would be 73.8 cm from the nut to the pickup centre line
