I've checked at the GAL website and done a google search looking for plans for early Romantic guitars (circa 1800-1850), and have had no luck. I'm sure there are folks who have made drawings of them while restoring them, but I'm not at all sure that any of these folks have published their drawings. Know of any?

Best,

Michael

Wow! Thanks for the link, John. What an amazing resource ol' Tsuruta-san has compiled! I especially like his very-Japanese-like humility regarding his guitar building skills. This guy is good.

Best,

Michael
