You could simply cut the body in half from side to side, then add a 4-5mm section to make the body longer. :D

Yeah simple ;)

Of course since the neck is not glued to the body I could pack out the tail end of the perch pole which will push the fingerboard away from the bridge. I’ll need to make up the resulting gap between the body and heel, but I guess in the worst case it’s an option...

Are you able to rig up a tail piece, put a saddle in, fit the two E tuners, put some strings on and check the intonation? Whilst measurement is OK, there's nothing like the empirical test method.

@wonks yes I agree, I’ll only really find out when I rig up a temporary saddle
