My CJ-165 is from 2007, with a cutaway & soundhole electronics:
Waist = 9”
Upper bout = 10-7/8”
Lower bout = just under 15”
Body length = 18-1/2”
My 2006 CJ-165 -- with no cutaway -- has pretty much the same dimensions although I measured the upper bout at exactly 11"
If you're in search of an after-market case, the guitar should fit nicely in just about any OM/000 case. Mine has a Gibson OHSC but fits quite well in all three of my 000 cases (Alvarez, Golden Gate, & Glarry).
I hope this is helpful.

These Dunlop locks are secure, simple, and inexpensive.

I also own a bubinga J-100 XTRA and absolutely love its warm tone.
The eBay description seems to be a cut & paste job by someone who either -A- doesn't know anything about the guitar or -B- didn't read what he copied (the pics show that the guitar is made of bubinga).
The clearly inaccurate description & the asking price of almost $3100 (in US dollars) for a guitar that usually fetches about half of that leads me to conclude that "A" is the correct answer. Consequently, I'd make no offer at all on this guitar.
The seller's feedback rating notwithstanding - this auction smells very fishy. . .
That said - the J-100 XTRA is a wonderful guitar.
Thanks Steve...is the guy's description wrong(curly maple)...are you saying Bubinga because of the photos...or have I misread something...I also just noticed he says crown markers on the fretboard...that's not right either...has he copy and pasted wrong descriptors?

FS: Gibson J-100 XTRA (Bubinga) w/ OHSC
in Gibson Acoustic
Posted
After much hemming & hawing, I’ve decided to part with my mint 2006 Gibson J-100 XTRA (Bubinga). It sounds and plays sweetly, but the facts are that I’m a shorter guy with arthritis developing in my shoulder that necessitates sticking with smaller guitars
This guitar features Bubinga back and sides - which provides a rosewood-type tone --- to my ears anyway :) --- a 14/20-fret rosewood fingerboard with pearl dot inlay, 25.5” scale. 1-23/32" nut, an L. R. Baggs soundhole pickup, mustache bridge, and a contoured tortoise pickguard. It also features full body binding, with multi-stripe purfling and a multi-stripe rosette – and includes the OHSC (also mint).
$1850 – plus shipping, insurance, PayPal
OR
Pick-up in SE Michigan/NW Ohio corridor
