There's a proper mini strat at Chandlers guitars in london:

Just get a real Strat and slap a Jagmaster neck on it. That way it doesn't look like a disproportionate child's guitar, it'll have a more versatile sound, and probably a better feeling neck.

That's a great idea. Does it intonate correctly?

Yeah Jagmaster II neck is not a true 24" scale.

Yes, I had a jagmaster and it was 24" scale.

That's a bit odd, the true scale of a jagmaster II is 25.5", the neck is a conversion 24" neck from that scale. I'm not sure where 24 3/4" scale comes into the picture.

The jagmaster I'm talking about are the new ones you can find at Guitar Center. I measured mine and it was 24" from nut to saddles.

Aye. You might want to re-mesure that. There have been three evolutions of the Jagmaster. The original Vista was a true 24" scale. Then the next Jagmaster was a 25.5" The newest jagmaster, which I have had one of, is the body as the last model but with a conversion 24" scale neck to adjust the 25.5" scale body. Both the fender specs on their webpage and my own measurements when I had one confirm the scale as 24". I ended up using the neck on a MIM duo-sonic (which is also a conversion from 25.5") so I had to be sure of scales matching up before I transplanted it.

I just remeasured. It is 24" scale. I was thinking wrong. It's my sunburst cyclone that's 24 3/4". Sorry.

I really want a 22.7" scale strat but think I'm going to wait a little while. I'm restricted to the short scales because of a shattered elbow that still(1.5 years after surgery) flares up if I play 25.5 for more than 10 minutes or so.
