PLUCKyou Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 i'd go to a music store or find a friend with one and measure it...i don't think you're going to find measurements like that online...but i'm probably wrong...i think just going to a music shop would be the easiest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernova9 Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 I want to do a P.R.S and a Les Paul copy. What size blanks do I buy? ← Neck Blanks or Body Blanks? If you're looking at PRS/Les Pauls, body blanks are all normally standard sizes, and usually mahogany. Then there's the top, which is predominantly maple, and a 3/4" top is used normally with a 1/2" depth of carve. I'd seriously suggest investing in some guitar plans/books if you're wondering about dimensions, they'll help no end, and you can find them cheap on ebay.

Supernova9 Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 Im looking for just the body specs. ← Have a look for things like these For accurate dimensions, they're your only real choice if you're looking to copy. Either that or getting the actual guitar you intend to build and measure that, if you can find one somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jer7440 Posted February 10, 2005 Report Share Posted February 10, 2005 (edited) For a LP you will need a blank that is 14w x 19l x 1 1/2 T. This is for the main body. The top will also be 14 x 19 but only 3/4 thick. I don't know about the PRS. These dimensions are in inches Edited February 10, 2005 by jer7440 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
