There are John How's plans for a jumbo parlor in the guitar project (the gift for Lance). There's a link at the top of the screen. Perhaps John can comment on whether he minds people using these plans? It looks like a nice little guitar. |

Also the GAL sells a plan for a 1918 (I believe) Martin #1. It's a bit smaller than a single 0, and a sweet little guitar. They can be reached at: www.luth.org Good luck, Steve |

I could probably score up a pretty good start to an 0-12 for you. Not plans per se, but a body tracing, bracing info, side tracing, etc. let me know if you are interested in them. |

The GAL's Instrument Plan #6 '20s Gibson L-O Guitar is a "different" looking small body shape. The GAL website has a reduced-size pic available for you to preview it. The plan uses a funky top bracing, so I'd just use the basic guitar shape & adapt an X-bracing design to use. Also, the plan's scale is 24.25". Again, I'd suggest modifying this & use another Gibson scale ... 24.75". It's a really cool body shape, check it out. Skip |

Thanks What is a Martin 2 or a Size 5 plan? How does this differ from a 00.... Andy |

The plans for my Jumbo Parlor are being prepared for OLF distribution I think. Michael Payne is doing that and they will be available from the OLF plans library. At least I think that is true.

I build a guitar that I call a Fatboy guitar, because it's a bit short and fat. It has a 12" upper bout, and a 15-1/2" lower bout with a 24.25 scale. It's loosely based upon an old Chicago-made Regal guitar. That is the guitar that's pictured here in my avatar! Plans for it are available on the MIMForum. |
