I don't get

yevetz · 05-22-2007, 02:13 PM

I see some pics where regular RG 25.5'' stand near RG XL 27'' And I don't see the difference in scales

Or I blind or the difference is too small...........?

Can you tell me in centimeter if you can please.

Thank you

If i remember correctly the 27" scale Ibanezes have their necks set further back into the body or something like that.

I know that wasn't helpful at all.

Its only like a 1.5" difference - however I can see it most of the time. The headstocks are above abit. I think what Battle-axe said might be it.... no clue.

They get lengthened at both ends (bridge & nut) so the difference isn't immediately obvious.

Yeah, as Variant said above it's a slight extension at both ends. The neck is just a little bit longer and the bridge is set slightly further back on the body. You can see my 27" 1077 beside my other 25" 7s on my gallery picture. Not a great photo, but the difference is there to see.

With RGs, the upper horn is the easiest way to tell. If it lines up with the 12th fret, its 25.5"; if it lines up with the 13th fret, its 27".

Here, you can see the difference pretty well in this catalog shot from 2001.
