    Nut to bridge. Or just measure nut to 12th fret and double it.

      This is the most accurate way, as the distance of each saddle may vary a tad when measuring at the bridge.

        I measure both to make sure some twit didn't put a 24.75 scale neck on a 25.5 body or vice versa.

          Not to mention a 24 fret neck on a body made for a 22 fret neck
