phaeton i believe the jagmaster is a 24" scale, so only 24" scale necks will fit.as far as heel widths go they change by the year they were made, you only you can find that out.
Cymastar Its not that they aren't "true" 24 inch, there's no such thing as "fake" 24 inch 🙄 , its that the neck is a different size than standard 24 inch necks, so that it is still a 24-inch scale guitar, but can be swapped for a 25.5 inch scale neck. 😎
Mustang-Pete True, it's a 24" guitar, but if you take the body on it's own, it is built for a 25.5" neck, so a normal 24" neck won't work, hence the special conversion necks 😉
Marlonmm so a jazzmaster neck is the one that will fit a chinese jagmaster body.a jaguar neck would intonate properly in a japanese jagmaster body.right?

However, Japanese (Vista) Jagmasters have Jaguar necks anyway. (They used spare Jag necks at the Japanese factory for the Vistas).
Marlonmm thanks! now i get it. there were a lot of posts about this but somehow couldn't get the idea.

Cymastar Sorry... I have KIAS, a diagnosed mental disorder. It compels me to act as I do. 😐KIAS: Know-It-All Syndrome 😆
