The search let me down on this one, as did the glossary; so here goes. I understand the Full ling jpg I've seen in some sigs, but what about the 3/4? Is there some definition for all the slang regarding size? Thanks! |

Well first off, and just because more people need to hear it, the guy that started all this mess plays some phenomenal guitar - viewtopic.php?f=1&t=328 Acceldebt (Ling Man) came up with the definitions as a fun thing in the early days of the site. I'm not sure that 3/4 ling ever got officially defined, it was always sort of bigger than a 1/2 ling, but not a full ling. I think it's pretty much 43 - 45mm, polished SS on a bracelet. If you add diamonds then it becomes a 7/8 ling. Hope that you're still watching us Ling Man and that 2010 is turning into a better year. |

Thanks Roff, I take it a 1/2 Ling is up to 42m or is there like a 5/8 as well? Out of curiosity, what happened to Ling man? |

That sounds about right for 1/2 Ling, but has to be polished and on bracelet. Don't think that anyone ever came up with a 5/8 ling. Ling Man just had a tough year last year. |

Ok great Roff, appreciate it. I've been calling my Colt Auto II on a Pro II a Baby Breitling as a way to sell my wife on getting another. Guess I can call it a 1/2 now lol. I hear that about Ling man, not too long ago I just got back to work after losing my job during the recession and being out of work for 10 months. I'm gratefull to have anything at this point! |
