Does anyone have the chart for fret spacing, specificly on a 24.25" neck?
Thanks,
Phil

Philip: There are a couple fret calculators online that you can use.

http://www.windworld.com/tools/fretcalc.htm

I'm not sure which one, but I think you can download one of these fret calculators onto your desktop to use forever for free. To use them all you have to do is enter your scale length (24.25") and the number of frets you plan to cover. I used these on the first incarnations of "Uncle Theo's Lap Map"

You can Google using the words Fret Calculator and you can choose from as many as you care to look at.

Here is a link that has a zip file for a program called wfret, You plug in what info you want and it will print out a fretboard template. It has all the standards, but you can plug what ever your trying to build in. It's Very cool.
