I´m contemplating ordering a neck and body for a Gibson RD-type guitar. Probably korina body & neck, simply ´cause there are none.
Any thoughts on what scale-length to go for?
I´ve got an ´77 RD Std. which is 25½" and the "Guitar of the week"-reissue RD which is 24 3/4". The shorter scale is a lot more comfortable to play, but it doesn´t handle the lower tunings as well and...it doesn´t look as cool as the ´77.
Geez, I feel silly even typing this stupid question, but any thoughts would be appreciated.
Anyone built one of these?
