I am in need of some Grand Auditorium Acoustic plans/blueprints. Can anyone suggest a source?
Even a template and some rough dimensions would do me good and I'll "fill in the blanks" in AutoCAD.
Any direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

When I drew up my GA plans, I simply went to the Taylor website (their -14 body shapes are some of my fave sounding instruments), took the basic measurements, and drew until I had something that I liked. A head-on shot of the instrument should let you figure most of the measurements you need out from the ones you know.

Bracing, I followed Cumpiano's instructions/plans, with a few modifications.

If you want a physical template to work off of I know you can them from LMI. They have the Taylor GA and most other popular models. Like Mattia it is one of my favorite shapes and I based my GA model on their design.
