Default questions about Journey RT660

Could someone please provide me with the measurements for the upper bout width of the Journey RT660, and the width of the waist?

and

Regarding the maximum and minimum depth of the lower bout, is the minimum depth where the right arm ends up going over the guitar--where the deep wedge is?

This information is not on Journey's website.

Thanks!

Hi Karen,

The info you seek is on the website, just not super easy to find. Click the link and scroll down to the bottom, past the videos and instrument description for the specs. Also, Journey is great about answering questions if you go to "Contact Us" and send them an email.

Thanks Steelvibe--It's interesting. They don't list the upper bout width nor the waist width, though those are often common specs. Unless I'm missing seeing them.

Sorry about that Karen, I didn't read your post thoroughly enough You are right that they don't seem to list the waist and upper bout measurements. i found one spec though, turns out LA Guitar Sales has taken measurement of at least the upper bout- so that gets you a little closer. Journey might answer your question directly if you contact them about the waist measurement, but the upper bout is 11" and you can see the info here
