I have four basic shapes currently available in acoustic (steel string), and one nylon string shape. As an add-on option you can get a cutaway on any of these although it is not recommended for the smaller sized steel strings. Left handed versions are available in all models at no extra charge. The following dimensions are in inches and approximate. Some variation is normal in a handmade guitar. The depth of the guitar is variable depending on customer’s desire in both sound and comfort, but upper bout is generally 3 ½ to 4 inches deep and the lower bout ranges from 4 to 5 inches deep.
| Model | Upper Bout | Waist | Lower Bout | Body Length |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SG | 11½ | 9 ½ | 15 | 20 |
| Dreadnought | 11 ½ | 10 ¾ | 15 ½ | 20 |
| JB | 11 ¾ | 9 ¾ | 16 | 20 |
| LG | 11 ½ | 9 ½ | 14 ½ | 19 |
| PL | 10 | 8 ¾ | 14 ½ | 19 |
My signature shape is the SG. It is similar in size to an OM, with a slightly tighter waist and slightly longer body.
On the larger side there is the classic Dreadnought shape.
The Jumbo sized JB.
While on the smaller side there is the LG which is similar in size to the smaller Gibson L1/L2 guitars.
The even smaller PL has a parlor sized upper bout and an LG sized lower bout.
