1/2 inches stud to stud the bath i want is 60" does the bath have to
be the same size as the gap? i dont want to drop in a frame i want to

Not an unusual situation, but I don't believe you can buy one in an
obscure size. You will have to frame (and likely drywall) the gap to
use a standard tub and shower surround.
