See below for different methods of measuring scale length based on the tools you can access. We have provided 3 ways below. (MN820), place the zero edge flush against the inside edge of the nut (see photo below)and measure to the center of the 12th fret (see photo below).If your scale length is one of the more common scale lengths, the center of the fret will align with one of the scale callouts on the ruler. If not, read measurement and then double it to calculate your guitar scale.2. Using a tape measure or ruler, align the 1" mark with the inside edge of the nut (see photo below)and measure to the center of the 12th fret (see photo below).Take the difference between the measurement and 1" (subtract 1" from the measurement you get) and double it to calculate your guitar scale.3. If you are still unsure about your guitar scale, message us and we will be happy to assist you.
