The GS Mini scale length is 23.5", and most (all?) Stella/Kay/Harmony parlor size guitars I've looked at are ~24" so why the neck change? Adjustable truss rod? Headstock length?
I've toyed with finding a floating bridge Harmony (et al.) parlor for such a conversion, but it's almost long enough for mandocello, which kind of interests me. Thinking about using the original neck with a new fingerboard and some CF reinforcement. (In a Silvertone sow's ear project, I used a "Martin scale" fingerboard minus the first fret bit and it's a near perfect fit.)
