I'm building a guitar in school, and I have now decided on what stuff is going to be in the guitar, so I can figure out what cavities need to be routed for the pickups and bridge. However, I will probably need to rout these cavities this monday, and I'm not exactly willing to pay for 1-day shipping from the US to Sweden. So I need to know what measurements the cavities for a reccessed Floyd Rose Original and an EMG-size humbucker need to have. I've been looking around the net without finding anything accurate, so now I turn to you guys. I am guessing that a few of you have got an Original Floyd and a humbucker of the same size as an EMG.

So, what I'm asking for is:
1. Some type of drawing of a routing for a reccessed Floyd Rose Original.
2. Some type of drawing for the routing for a EMG-size humbucker.

They need to be fairly accurate (down to 1mm or so, I guess).

Or, if anyone knows a site which contains this info, then that will be just as good.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
