My MCI S-12 Universal's jack (non-welded frame) is on the rear apron and is 1 and 3/4 inch from the rear deck top.

Excel S-10 jack is 2.625" below the top. Btw, there is a tone control directly above it that is 1.375" below the top.

Hey--just saw that this got a bunch of new action. Thanks guys!

Turns out that the idea I was trying to design was dead on arrival. It involved mounting my 2pup rig via a permanently installed male plug. But I could not get past a couple of issues including the substantial differences in this measurement.
So now we have this database. Maybe it will be useful some day to someone doing a forum search.

Thanks!
