Fretboard radius of S-100?

[fearless]

Can anyone tell me the fretboard radius of a Guild S-100? (70s, although I'm not sure if re-issues differ)

Not sure off hand, but I can tell you they're pretty flat compared to Guild electrics that came later with more curve (e.g., S300 and M-80).

I'm not sure you'll get a straight answer on this, fearless.

Because of the "technique" used at Guild, radius varied between guitars (12", 14", 18"...), and sometimes within the individual fingerboard itself (9",12",14"...) -- though not an intentional compound.

I'll be happy to measure, but I've always felt that the S300s I've had has a 12" radius - 10" at the most. I've got gauges if someone with real knowledge doesn't speak up first. I'm too hungover to look right now. Gimme a few hours.

I forgot - I have gauges too. Not sure where they are at the moment. I'll look around.

Thanks very much for all the replies. I don't want to put anyone to huge inconvenience. If there is significant variation from guitar to guitar, I might have to wait until I obtain one and then measure it. That said, it would still be good to know what other people's are as I don't know the technique for measuring it.

The reason for this is that I'm thinking of installing a compensated bone nut. The only person I know who makes them (who has not been stopped by and Ernie Ball injunction, that is!) is in the U.K. and needs to know the radius.
