Blues Creek Guitars - Quick Tip - Long Scale Neck on Size 5 Body

This time John is in SC visiting Jimmie Halls workshop. Jimmie has this fantastic quick tip - if you use a long scale neck (25.4"), and a 23" fingerboard scale, the fretboard will meet a size 5 body perfectly!

12 fret long scale neck is the point that took me a min to get. I love the size 5. I use long scale on size 0, I bet yours will sound great!
