tele deluxe bridge string spacing?

hey there - first post here. i have poked around high and low on the internet and have had absolutely zero luck finding the string spacing of this fender bridge. it seems like this should be very common information, but it is nowhere to be found on the fender site or anywhere else for that matter.

i am trying to find out the string spacing on the bridge of my tele deluxe 72 reissue. i was told by an aftermarket seller that it was 2 1/8. it is the basic fender hardtail non tremelo bridge. i see them ranging in sizes from 2 1/8 to 2 3/16. can anyone help? i have owned the guitar for close to 3-3 1/2 years.

Perhaps I'm misreading the content of your post....but if it's your Guitar, can't you just measure it ?

You talking about a difference of 1/16 in.............. 2 2/16 or 2 3/16......... what difference does it make?

The standard Tele spacing is 2-1/8". I can't imagine why the deluxe would vary.
