Does anyone have a Martin with a vintage "V" neck I can get specs from. I played a MArtin OM-18V 14 fret I really liked but did not mic. I could use the depth measurement at the nut, 5th, 7th and 10th. Once I set the depth, I'll just "V" the sides.
Sound about right?

1929 0-18, 12 fret, 1 7/8 nut width, flat fretbaord as well. 1st fret - .840, 9th - .965, 10th - .990. Its basically straight line from the 1st to the 9th, then gently curves up to the heel.
