			quick question for anyone who might know. i was going to build a few guitars and i was going to copy the scale of the valco/supro/airline etc.. short scale length. i had one and i loved how easy it was to play slide on, but i forgot to measure it before i got rid of it. i believe it is 24 1/4" but im not sure, seems it would be shorter. and im also unsure if their short scale necks varied. i read a fender duosonic is 22", wow, now thats short.

			I think most are 24 3/4" but they used other scale lengths too.
