Guitar players with a Les Paul...

[Fishy]

I know there a few guitar players here with Les Pauls.....Tony, I KNOW you GOTTA have at least one in that collection of yours!! Anyhoo I have an Austin LP copy and am looking for a case..(I can get em cheaper on line than I can at any store within 200 miles of here) but I know my Austin is a weeeee bit smaller that a real LP and I think the bell on mine is a bit more round than a real LP... I just need measurements. across the body bells (rounded parts..) for both the top and bottom bell as well as body height then once again with overall length from bottom of the guitar to the top of the headstock. Thanks guys!! ...will post my measurements in a sec... gotta hunt down my tape measure....btw this is to measure for a hardcase...if you guts have a hard case could you measure it to the case as well and tell me if it'll fit or how far off it is? Thanks

I voulenteer a pic of mine when I first got it.

Top bell: 9 1/4" across

Bottom bell: 13" across

Body height: 17"

Overall length: 39"

Thanks again guys!!

For being a knock off brand mine plays real nice...has a great sound and a real smooth feel to it...my 9th fret buzzez a bit but that's my only complaint about it

Mine is a 1974 Custom and is in the original Gibson hardshell case. Only different measurement is the body height.
Top bell: 9 1/4" across
Bottom bell: 13" across
Body height: 17 1/4"
Overall length: 39"
