Hello everyone . I was wondering if somone could tell me the best dimensions for an OO guitar. Are the sides tapered? I have nothing to go by, except what you folks tell me and pictures . Is there a place on the web where I can get basic dimensions for the various guitar sizes?
All input is greatly apreciated .
Jeff

The 00 will come in 12 or 14 fret. Also you can do deep body. The sides are actually a compund curve that will form out to a radius of about 15 foot on the back. The top should be striaght till the back is praboliced then the top should have the radius put in. this helps to set the neck angle that is most critical to a great playing guitar.

It comes in either Vanilla, Chocolate or Strawberry. Prabolas very tasty!
