define "normal size" and I might be able to help you. Are you referring to a dreadnaught size guitar?

[chorro]

just a standard acoustic, no modifications.

like this:

yeah that is a dreadnaught, but what do you mean by size? Like do you mean the length from the end of the headstock to the butt of the guitar? If that is what you want, i think it varies from each manufacturer.

As far as I know a folk guitar has a smaller body than a dreadnought, less volume, higher tone. Depends what feels comfortable to you, and how loud you want to play. The cutaway makes it easier to play higher up the neck.

If I were you; I'd never buy an acoustic without playing it.
