Initially I though they were from a long scale Fender Stringmaster but they are shorter and wider than the ones on my 24 1/2" Stringmaster.
They are aluminum as far as I can tell. Just over 19 5/8" long.
Thanks,
Tim

So what is the scale length - (distance to 12th fret x2)?

Fender trapezoid series? (22-1/2" scale.)

Fender 800/2000 10-string PSG, later, shorter scale? It seems to be about the same length as my Fender 400 fret board, but wider.

That would have been my guess except that they only have 29 frets, the same as the short scale Stringmsters.

I think you could be right there - looks like the right number of fret markers too.

Thanks for the replies. Looks like its a 22 1/2" scale.
I will be posting them for sale shortly if anyone is interested.
