Do AllParts Jaguar Necks fit in Mustang Bodies?

I mean, I think they do, but I have a vintage Mustang body and I'm looking at a few different neck options.

Yes, US-spec Mustangs and Jaguars share the same neck pocket, scale length, etc.

Thanks! That's what I thought, but I just needed an internet stranger to confirm. :ph34r:

So while we're on the subject does the swap work vice versa? I'd like to throw one of the new maple Mustang necks in a Jag body

Yes. Again, as long as they're both USA-spec, you'll be fine. Japanese bodies and necks have a neck pocket that are 1-2 mm different in size, but can work with a bit of sanding or shimming. US-spec ones fit without modification.
