Thumbs up Guitar dimensions site

You probably had your question answered years ago but for any readers who may discover this thread in the future, there is a website that has a lot of information on guitar dimensions, especially body size and scale length of Martin and Gibson acoustic guitars:

GREAT SITE! I have no connection to it whatsoever, I just found it useful.
