Width Of Body At Largest Point = 13"
Depth Of Neck Joint = 1 5/16"
Length Of Body At Longest Point = 17 3/4"
Depth Of Neck without fingerboard = 3/4" (mine is a wide thin)
Body Thickness = 1 7/8" (Mahogany Back is 1 1/8" leaving maple cap thickness at 3/4")
Neck Angle = 3.5 degrees

Very timely post for me. I've been running back and forth from the garage to measure things on my PRS Custom 24 for reference during my current build. Nice to have everything written out in one place. Thanks!
