A useful guitar body store answers one question before it shows you anything else: will the parts already on your bench drop into this piece of wood? That is why this page leads with the measurements that decide fitment and only then points you at a roasted poplar jazzmaster guitar body built on a USA-standard neck pocket, a 25-1/2″ scale and a top-routed pickup channel. Work through the fit matrices, confirm the routing you need, then choose the neck that finishes the build.
Three starting points, three specs to check before you spend anything. Each card names the single spec that settles the decision.
This body lists a 2-7/32″ (56 mm) wide, 3″ (76.2 mm) long and 5/8″ (15.88 mm) deep pocket described as USA standard, matched to a 25-1/2″ scale. Measure your neck heel, not the nut width.
Decision: a heel at those numbers means a drop-in assembly; anything wider means you are shaping wood or changing the neck.
The body is top routed for configuration and listed as accepting universal pickup settings, with a 60’s F Brand Top Guard Style control cavity and a vintage top-mount jack.
Decision: match your pickup footprint and control layout first — routing is the one detail you cannot change after the cut.
A 1-3/4″ (44.5 mm) thick body inside a 3.3–4.0 lb (1.5–1.8 kg) band leaves you free to shop the neck around balance rather than pocket size.
Decision: choose body weight and neck weight together so the finished instrument does not dive headstock-first.
Everything below is listed on the Roasted Poplar Jazzmaster P90 body (SKU STRPTMBK). Use it as a measuring checklist against the neck in front of you.
| Check point | Listed specification | Why it decides fit |
|---|---|---|
| Pocket width | 2-7/32″ (56 mm) — USA standard | The single measurement that most often sends a body back. Measure the heel, not the nut. |
| Pocket length | 3″ (76.2 mm) | Confirms the heel seats fully without gaps at the pocket floor. |
| Pocket depth | 5/8″ (15.88 mm) | Sets string height off the top before you touch the bridge. |
| Pocket standard | Designed to fit USA standard Stratocaster necks | Tells you which neck family to shop on the same store. |
| Scale length | 25-1/2″ | Drives bridge position and intonation travel across the whole build. |
Trace your neck heel on paper or use calipers and compare all three numbers. If your heel matches 2-7/32″ × 3″ and your scale plan is 25-1/2″, this pocket is a direct replacement fit. If any number is off, message the team with your measurements instead of ordering on hope.
Send Your Neck MeasurementsFitment is only half the build. These are the cavities and hardware positions listed for the same body.
The listing carries a Jazzmaster P90 product name while its description lines describe a Stratocaster shape with single-coil routing. Those two do not agree, and the page does not explain the difference. Pickup cavities cannot be re-cut, so confirm the exact routing you need — P90 or single coil — with the team before you commit.
Confirm My RoutingThe numbers you feel rather than measure — and the ones that decide whether a finished guitar balances on a strap.
Within that 3.3–4.0 lb spread, a body at the heavy end helps counterbalance a dense neck, locking tuners or a long headstock, which is the usual cure for neck dive. A body at the light end keeps shoulder fatigue down through a long set or rehearsal, but it asks more of your strap and your neck choice.
Decision: already own a heavy neck or heavy hardware? Ask for a body from the heavier end of the band. Building light? Pair a light body with a slim neck and plan your bridge hardware accordingly. Because weight varies inside the listed range, request the actual figure for the piece you are buying if weight is critical to you.

The commercial picture matches the fitment picture: a USA-standard pocket, a 25-1/2″ scale and a top-routed channel, offered with a quantity selector for builders assembling more than one instrument. If the variant you want is unavailable, the listing offers a Notify Me path so you are told when it returns.
If you are assembling a run of instruments, replacing a batch of bodies, or you simply need pieces matched on weight before they ship, ask before you order. The same team can confirm the routing on this listing, quote multiple bodies in one enquiry, and tell you what a matched neck plus body set looks like for your scale.
Confirm the pocket, settle the routing, then choose the scale you want to play. Everything on this page comes down to those three decisions.

TWT GUITARS 4 Strings Jazz Bass guitar neck features roasted maple, satin finish, 34″ scale, 20 frets, 12″ radius, and 18 mm holes—pro-grade feel and tone.
View productthe neck pocket on this body is listed as 2-7/32″ wide, 3″ long and 5/8″ deep, described as a usa-standard stratocaster pocket on a 25-1/2″ scale body. if your neck heel matches those three numbers, it should seat correctly. measure the heel first, then confirm your intended pickguard and pickup layout with the team, because the guard and the routing have to match each other as well as the neck does.
the page carries a jazzmaster p90 product name alongside description lines that refer to a stratocaster shape and single-coil routing, and it does not reconcile the two. pickup cavities cannot be re-cut once the body is machined, so confirm the exact routing you need before you order rather than after the box arrives.
the body is roasted poplar with a polyester finish in black. the listing states that the roasting process improves the wood’s stability and tone, which is the main reason builders choose roasted poplar for a replacement body.
the listed weight band is 3.3 to 4.0 pounds, or 1.5 to 1.8 kilograms. a body at the heavy end helps offset a long or heavy neck and reduces neck dive; a lighter body reduces shoulder fatigue over a long session but leans more on your strap and hardware choices. because weight varies within the band, ask for the actual figure for the piece you buy if balance is critical.
the listing shows $179.00 reduced to $89.00 usd with a quantity selector, and shipping is shown as from outside the us. availability can change, so use the notify me option if the variant you want is out of stock, and allow extra lead time for an international shipment.
fitment is the most common reason bodies come back, so review the store’s shipping and returns terms before ordering and compare the pocket measurements with your neck heel while you still have both in front of you. if anything is unclear, send the team your measurements before you commit — that is far cheaper than shipping a body back.
