One of the Access cases I bought on Ebay was for a client who has changed his mind on the shape of his guitar...so, it's up for grabs here for anyone who's trying to get hold of one...it's the classical/concert size, brown, still in bag/box...

I'm looking for a case to fit my 000-13 I built, was wondering what the exact dimensions were of the case in question.

Thanks,
Greg

Well, I don't know which model it is since there's no tag in or on the case with the model number, but the measurements are:

OAL 40 (plus a 3/4" or so slot for the endpin)
UB 11 1/4-11 1/2
Waist 10 1/4-10 1/2
LB 15-15 1/4
Depth 5-5 1/4 (inside depth with the lid closed)
Body Length 22 1/4 (to the start of the endpin slot)

Michael, I'd guess mine is Stage 3 then...the padding is nice and is piled more than the velour Cedar Creeks I've used...the measurements I just posted vary because on the first one, I've not pushed the padding at all, on the second, I've pushed a bit to account for a tighter, "Taylor-esque" fit into the case.

Also, there's no adjustable anything up in the headstock area.

I had 2 sets of grenadillo, you saw the first Grand Ceoncert model recently. I'm caught between building the SJ, and doing a modified "sister" gtr to the G.C. (using a different top, thinner bracing and tonewoods, etc.)

I should do some experimentation early on in my building career. "A - B" testing will help here. I also have 2 sets each of Palo Escrito, ribbon mahogany, and Koa. All cheaper woods, under $100/set. And a few other more expensive, exotic,individual, or unique sets. (Spalted Makore, cuban mahogay, walnut, etc...)

I will definitely make use of the plans. Love the guitar shape, and the plans you made were excellent. I was considering taking a poll and have an OLF designed guitar based on the materials I have on hand.

I have a cutaway SJ Quilted Sapele in process but having to wait a while for a new set I ordered from the Zootman due to the lossof the sides when the shelf fell a couple weeks ago. And it will be put on the back burner when I get back in the country to start a simi rush commissioned D-cutaway I took Tuesday. i am also planning a pair of 3 piece Quilted Maple/Quilted Sapele\Quilted Maple 9 sting and a 12 string to use the orphaned Sapele back. The SJ is my favor-rite shape.
