3/4 is nearer than 2/3
I am metric and all these 3/4" 15/16"
31/32"

So now I am really confused! But I thank you for the info.I was not aware of this. Lets say I wanted to get the closes sound to what Lennon played, could I get this with the 350, since it seems, or now I am unsure, that the necks are basically the same. There is a diff in price. I want to get the best for the money!
Thanks again to all!

hello Juan,
the necks are not the same, as Paul mentioned.
The 325 family has a short 3/4 neck, 20 3/4 inches
long, the 350 models have a full scale neck of
24 3/4 inches.
Many guitarists find a 20 3/4 inch neck hard to play, so RIC made the 350 models.
But Lennon played a short neck 325.
The new 325C64 is a copy of his 325 Miami model,
the 325V63 (not in production anymore, comes close) and the 325C58 is a copy of this first 325 guitar he bought in Hamburg in 1961.
But, if you want a guitar to play on, you may prefer a full scale length neck guitar, the 350V63.
