Pekollio Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Hey Folks, I'm looking to get the exact dimensions of the EBMM Albert Lee guitar body so that I can make my own version and not spend the $1100+ on a new one and modify the heck out of it. Any ideas where I can get this info? Pekollio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crafty Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 The dimensions for the entire guitar are listed on the EBMM website for the Albert Lee guitar. Using a photo of the guitar, you can use the scale length to determine the proper size of the body. Either that or you can just go to the music store and measure one. I was actually planning on doing one of those myself just because it's different than what everyone else seems to build around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw the basic body size listed on the EBMM website [12-11/16" wide, 1-3/4" thick, 36-9/16" long] and hopefully can use that as well. I rarely see a real one around here in any music stores so measuring one would be a reach. Let me know if you start one and perhaps we could share info.

crafty Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Will do. It'll probably be next spring for me, but I'll keep you in mind. Also, go to Google Images and search for pictures of the guitar. I found a few good no-angle shots from doing that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pekollio Posted August 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 Crafty, There are several great pics of the guitar on the Ernie Ball Music Man Forums, it just takes a little searching I found some nice ones that should be perfect.
