Have you bought a MIA neck, or looking to buy, to put into a MIM body?

If cavity measures 2.50" and the neck measures 2.50 or less, no reason why they would not. If the neck is already drilled, just install the neck into the cavity, install neck plate and screws and see if all aligns up. If not, you might have to plug and redrill the mounting holes in the neck.

I have put MIA jazz necks on MIM bodies several times - they all fit. When I have had trouble was with the MIJ necks - the holes seemed to be drilled about 1/16" off.
