Hi there, I wonder if anyone could tell me the radius of the beveled or rounded edge of the Albert Lee guitar? (I guess it's expressed using "radius," but maybe there's another way. I'm not sure what tool I would use to measure this...) Not the arm contour or belly cut, but the rest of the body. My reason for asking: I'm thinking about ordering a guitar from Japan and would like to specify the same edge as my AL, which I find very comfortable. Attaching a photo of my guitar from when it was new. Thanks in advance.

Might be best to grab a contour/profile gauge from a hardware store and measure it; I had one but seem to have misplaced it. 🤦‍♂️
More than likely though, it's probably something like a 1/4 or 5/16"; I did a body once with a 3/8" or 1/2" roundover bit and it that one seems a lot curvier than my ALs.
