Ok, I have finally figured out how to post photos of my guitars, please see below. Regarding your questions about fret width, I am afraid that I don't know, I have not measured this and am not sure how to measure it as exactly as you are describing.
Well, if you want to measure Fret Width or Height, you could use Digital Calipers in Inch measurements for that.
(Also, note: I cut photos out of quotes here on purpose. Your photos are still showing in the reply above.)

Looks pretty good. Did they use the 24.50" scale length for it? I'm guessing that's a yes.
Richard A wrote:Fillmore 65th Anniversary "Johnny Ramone" model re-issue prototype; this was originally intended by Fillmore to be the 65th Anniversary model in 2017 and was to be a re-issue of the black, single pick-up "Johnny Ramone" model that Semie made for Johnny in 1989/90, but the planned re-issue never went ahead, I believe for financial reasons, so they only made this one. It was made by Mr. Yusa in Japan, then assembled and pickups wound/installed by Dana Moseley.

I didn't know this one reissue was made. Wasn't one of the white ones with a Sharkfin pickguard? Going by SouthpawJay's comparison video below, The Dana Moseley Pups seem to be more "open" than Hallmark or Japan-made pups.

Well, darn. This I did not expect, congratulations on it. It's a rare day for anyone to have a guitar that was owned by a favorite guitarist, one way or another.
How hot are its pickups - something like 8.4k neck, 10.4k bridge? I've heard conflicting info about the ohm ratings for Ventures II Carved / Mark V pickups, and never heard a consensus of what was used.
