Cort KX500MS Star Dust Green -fanned fret / multi-scale -7-string electric guitar with EMG-pickups. A multi-scale fingerboard (also called multiple scale length fretboard [1]) is an instrument fretboard which incorporates multiple scale lengths. This allows each of the strings to have a different string tension and thus, balanced tonal ...
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.
A fingerboard is a scaled-down replica of a skateboard that a person "rides" with their fingers, rather than their feet. A fingerboard is typically 100 millimeters (3.9 in) long with width ranging from 26 to 55 mm (1.0 to 2.2 in), with graphics, trucks and plastic or ball-bearing wheels, like a skateboard. [1]
The length, width, thickness and density of a fingerboard can affect timbre. Most fingerboards can be fully described by these parameters: w 1 — width at nut (close to the headstock) w 2 — width at half of scale length (if fretted, usually the 12th fret) h 1 — profile height (thickness) at the nut; h 2 — profile height (thickness) at ...

It also has a medium 32"-scale length (812,8 mm) which plays just like a regular Jazz Bass with a capo at the first fret. The medium scale permits the use of slightly heavier gauge strings while retaining the same "feel" (string tension) as a standard long 34"-scale bass.
When the Fender Jaguar was released in 1962, it used the Jazzmaster body with its unusual lead/rhythm electrics and the floating tremolo, but with a short scale-length neck, the Bass VI switch panel and two unique "toothed" pickups. Having only two pickups to control, the Jaguar's third slider switch served as a bass cut (also known as ...
The Duo-Sonic and Musicmaster also shared a single-piece maple neck and fingerboard, with a 22.5 inch scale length and 21 frets. There was one major redesign of these two Musicmaster-bodied guitars, in 1959 when the entire Fender catalog was updated.
