Jack space in Crybaby GCB95?

Does anyone know the exact spacing for the jacks in the crybaby GCB95? I think it would be easier to have board mount jacks like they do, instead or wiring it up.

If not, do you know what a good size (width really) pcb would be to fit in there? I don't have mine here (and wont for a few weeks) and I'm worried about making the PCB too wide.

Thanks  :)

EDIT: and if you know that, you would probably not this simple question.. the size of the body and the pin spacing of the yellow and red fasel inductors?

  I measure 3-1/16'' give or take <2%...I just happened to have my wah out, right here.

  This is a modern CB though, not sure if the casting is exactly alike.
  I happen to have VOX 847 with the old style board/jacks here, it's 3-1/8'' across between the jacks, which have a thickened/strengthened portion on each side where they are, the two 'flats' where the jacks go in [otherwise the sides arent' parallel] look parallel, probably are...close enough for PCB's I think.
Thanks 
  N/P, PCB's don't stretch very good, but those are measurements fresh off of a 1950's tape-rule.
  Otherwise there's the whole battery containment area, and between the jacks could be filled up some more, also in front of the pot there's a little room on the left hand side of the switch.
