Standard Scale Length

[Dani Pace]

This should be an easy one for anyone who does guitar repair on a regular basis. I need to know if there is a standard neck length for various brands of guitars. I know Fenders are longer than Gibsons, but is there a standard length for these and others? If anyone knows please share with me and anyone else who might be considering a neck replacement.

Fender - 25.5 inches
Gibson - 25.5 inches and 24.65 inches
Martin - 25.4 inches and 24.9 inches
PRS - 25 inches

Most other companies use one of these.

And by the way, the Gibson scale is frequently written (for some unknown reason) as 24 3/4. What they actually use is 24.65.
