Mighty Mite neck on SX body? + Tuners?

Wondering if a MM jazz neck will fit in the pocket of a SX jazz bass and if the SX tuners will fit in the MM tuner holes?

I put a MM Jazz neck on an SX P-bass body and it fit fine. Did not try the tuners.

hmm!! I thought the SX bodies had a slightly smaller neck pocket than the Fender pocket.

Good info to know, I have seen a few SX's that I like but I hate the HS. This could change things fir me

Same here. Ive got an SX coming and I am getting rid of that horrible headstock.

You really won't know until you get the SX bass.

The only SX bass I had was a P-bass type I bought in early 2012. My Mighty Mite neck fit fine on that.

I have had several SX guitars and had mixed success fitting Fender or Mighty Mite necks on those. Some fit fine, one others the neck pocket was too small and on others the neck pocket was too large.

My results are no guarantee that you'll get the same results.

I've put an SX on a fender body to do a mock up and it fit fine. I imagine the reverse is true as well.
