Huh!? I've been playing these confounded things since 1961, and I've never heard of the overall length being of any interest to anyone before, but mine average out at about 40 inches.

umm... length of the guitar? I think length is a prefrence thing... I play an ibanez, but recently I got to play someone's les paul, and the neck seemed much shorter than my ibanez... I think it's a preference thing.
