Hey Shortscalers--i'm a n00b to the forum and to short scales in general.
My first shortscale is actually in the mail as we speak--it's a '66 Jaguar in LPB, all orig.
I'm very stoked to get it!!
Definitely looking forward to learning from you guys on this forum.
I'm also a member at Offsetguitars--as i love Jazzmasters.
also--what is the cutoff point for "short scale"? are Gibson's with a 24 3/4" scale considered short scale?

Hot. Really nice guitar.
I guess 24" is considered short scale with Gibsons "medium".
Welcome.

That is gorgeous guitar. LPB with matching headstock is killer. Welcome to the forum.
