I'm sure the experts will chime in soon, but off the top of my head, the 325 and the little Tulips (950?) are 20 3/4 scale...not sure about others.

Don't forget the 1996 - basically a 325, but that f-hole makes it something different....

24.75"
By Tulips, I'm talking about the Combo 400/450 and not the 900/950.

Actually some 320s from the 1980s had a 21 1/4" scale.

OK , so you have a catalog with the scale length listed as 21 1/4", with neither factory confirmation, not anecdotal evidence, that this was really the case.
I'm inclined to believe it was a catalog misprint, unless someone owns one of these guitars, or official word says otherwise.

Of course I have no proof, but iiipopes did post and say it was a 21" scale (but didn't say 21 1/4").
The one really strange thing which is probably a misprint is how those guitars look wider (the body is obviously wider than the pickguard) and they list the same body width.

My fault, the body width specifications are correct on my flyers: 320 13", 325V59 12 3/4", no typo there
