On the ShoBud they tended to use 3/4" on neck and cabinet. I used 3/4" to build a cabinet around LDG end plates years ago and it fitted like a glove.
ShoBud 6139 - Remington Steelmaster - George Boards 8 String - Gretsch Country Gent - National Twin 8 Console x 2 - National New Yorker and a shed full of guitars.
