Fender has also built some 3/4-size student guitars with a scale length of 22.5 inches (570 mm) or shorter. Gibson uses a scale length of 24 + 3 ⁄ 4 inches (630 mm) on most of its electric guitars, including the ES-335, Les Paul, SG, Flying V, and Explorer. Gibson has used other scale lengths on various models through the years.
