Someone is selling me an All Parts Jazzmaster body but I think he has routed the neck pocket for some reason. Does anyone know the dimensions of it?
The depth is what I need most. As length and width seems ok. I have tried a Strat neck and it fits perfect. But I think the depth is at least 3mm more than the original.

I did some search on this and I found out that from a late 60s Jazzmaster the pocket is 9/16" deep (14.3mm), USA CG 's and Warmoth's Jazz body has the standard 5/8 ( 15.9mm ).
But the seller's body has 19mm depth! 3mm more than needed...

Oups! I'm really sorry... I meant 3mm! That was right but the other ones were wrong.

I corrected my post.

I think that setting up a Jazzmaster to be buzz free with a neck pocket that low would be very difficult to do.
