Hey guys. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction to find plans / templates for a Gibson J-45?? If those aren't attainable I'd settle for a similar slope shouldered model. Thanks in advance! Jordan |

Thanks Todd! I'll definitely look into those options. I believe the guitar plans unlimited version has is from an actual guitar, and they guestimated the bracing, etc. |

Mike Collins put a lot of work into the J-45 plan, and the setup he used to measure the bracing is pretty clever. I'd bet it's the most accurate, if that's what you're after. |

I have to place a small order with Stew-Mac this week, so I'll probably go ahead and grab the plans from them. Thanks for all your help Todd. I need the whole gamut of specs, so the Collins plans should work great. Don't worry about digging anything up though. |

Another thing you might want to grab is the book "Fabulous Flat-Tops" they have quite a bit of detailed gibson info in there. Brace sizes etc. |
