Body Depth 1 1/2 inches

As a side note, I had an email based dialogue with a seller of guitar bodies who advertised their Mustang bodies at 48mm (1.75")
I asked why not 38mm (1.5"), stating that I have 2 Fender Broncos that are 38mm thick and Warmoth Mustang bodies are 38mm thick and sent them the above link.
They then told me it was a typo on their part and they make their Mustang bodies at 44mm thick and they have a '59 Jazzmaster there with them that is 44mm thick, so that's how thick all Mustangs are and I'm full of shit.
I didn't buy anything from them, and probably wont now.

thanks guys! I like that the body is a little slimmer. It puts my picking hand in a better position compared to feeling like I'm reaching over the guitar with thicker bodies.
