Rounding off fractions? Do they do that?

Ah, I think I got it..... it depends how humid it is!!!  High humidity, the wood swells and you have bigger guitar!!!!   :GRN>    :GRN>    :GRN>

I wonder if you really, really, humidify a guitar, can you turn an L into a Jumbo???????

If I take a ruler to my 00 the measurements don't exaxtly match anything I've seen published.

I only checked depth, but my om is 3 9/16' at the neck and 4 1/4" at the other end.

3/4 " difference.   Maybe what you are reading in specs is average or measurements made in different places.      :UND>
