Also, the higher tension of the strings will make them feel stiffer, so bending will require more strength. The longer the scale, the more separated the frets are, which makes it a bit harder to move fast on the fretboard. The scale length will affect the separation of the frets, the string tension, and even the tone of the guitar. ![]() This is the scale found in most PRS guitars, and it's right between the length of most Stratocasters and Les Pauls. Here's the PRS SE Hollowbody Standard's 25" scale length compared to other common sizes: PRS SE Hollowbody Standard's scale length (at the top) compared to other popular sizes A longer scale length means longer distance between frets, brighter tone and more string tension-which means lower action, but more difficult bending of the strings. It can tell you a lot about the overall playability and tone of the instrument. Scale length is the distance the strings will span between the bridge and the nut. This was recorded from some online retailers that publish the weight of the guitars they sell. We found that the PRS SE Hollowbody Standard weighs between 6lbs (2.7kgs) and 6.15lbs (2.8kgs). ![]()
