Keith, Thanks for your comments. Yes, I do realize that the woods, bracing, strings, environment, etcetera, all factor in and scale length may be marginal effect, if at all. I asked though because the distributor was telling me that shorter scale length would mean less tension and would affect the sound, making it not as loud as I may be used to with my 650mm scale. I had played a shorter 645mm scale and didn't have any problems and found the guitar comfortable and it did seem not as loud -- but there are all those other factors as you noted. ... I guess I was really trying to ask is there really much of a difference between a 645 and 650 scale guitar? thanks again, Michael.
