Hi all,
I've been looking for my first electric and some are listed as 3/4 and some at 4/4.
Ok, I'm pretty sure that it's the size - that is 1/2 is probably half size etc etc. I'm assuming that 4/4 is a full size guitar and most suited for adult consumption, but just want to make sure...
Thanks.
Rock on!

They're not literal, though - a 3/4 size guitar is about 9% smaller than a full size.

On this subject - is there much difference between a 7/8 and a 4/4?
No.
3/4 is the largest non-standard size. I've seen a few guitars marketed as "7/8", but they're really just the smaller of the two standard scale lengths - the standard Fender is 25-1/2" from nut to saddle, the standard Gibson is 24-3/4". So guitars made using the Gibson standard are slightly smaller - but they're still considered "full size"

Interesting. Thanks NoteBoat.
