Floyd rose template dimension

Thanks to Alex we now have this art work for the site.

If anyone has a guitar laying around and a couple of minutes would you post the Make, Model and measurements here please?


Here's what I got :

I took measurements of the trem unit itself and also the routed cavity.

Original Floyd in a late 80's Kramer with recessed rout :

Unit :

A - 3.619 "(slightly less than 3 5/8")

B - 2.681" (2 11/16 ") Minimum (includes string clamp screw)
- 2.809" (slightly less than 2 12/16") Maximum (inclused string clamp screw

C - 2.909"(slightly more than 2 29/32") Guitar player Repair guide says they should be 2 15/16" apart (2.937")

D - 2.645" (slightly more than 2 41/64")


Routed area:

A - 3.743" (slightly less than 3 3/4" )

B - 3.240" (slightly less than 3 1/4")

D - 2.787" (slightly more than 2 25/32")

E - 1.618" (slightly less than 1 5/8")
* E is not the same all the way across. It becomes much more narrow around the area where the tremelo arm is . I measured 0.804" (slightly less than 13/16") in this area .

F- 1.360 (a little more than 1 1/32")

WD Floyd copy

Unit:

A - 3.700"(slightly less than 3 45/64")

B - 2.807" (slightly less than 2 13/16")

C - 3.082" (slightly more than 3 5/64") 
* The WD unit design allows this measurement to vary slightly, which I find superior to other units. 

D - 2.544" (slightly less than 2 35/64")


Routed area (for recessed fit)

A - 3.819" (slightly more than 3 13/16")

B - 3.130" (slightly more than 3 1/8")

D - 2.810" (slightly less than 2 13/16")

E - 1.777" (slightly less than 1 25/32")
* This measurement is not the same all the way across, it gets more narrow around the area of the tremelo arm, which is 0.896" (about 57/64 ")

F - 1.190" (slightly more than 1 3/16")


The Kramer Floyd rout is a factory route, with no mods done by me. The WD rout is all done by me and I came up with the measurements.

Kind of ironic that I'm the one posting this, since I hate to see non-whammy and vintage whammy guitars converted to have these big Floyd-type monsters put on them. But I guess I was thinking about all the botched rout jobs I've seen and that often makes people want to totally junk the body altogether.

It was also a lot more work to get these measurements and type it all out here than I thought it would be. I was in the shop and thought I could just spare a few moments to do it, which turned out to take much longer.
I hope others take some measurements too, even of Original Floyd routs, like mine.
