I thought I read somewhere that there were some OLF multi scale (baritone?) plans available on Stew Mac. I can't seem to find them. Are they not available yet or am I just blind/looking in the wrong place???

They are in the evaluation stages now. Hopefully they will have those and the standard plans available soon. I will reach out to them this week and see where we are.

Excellent, thanks.

Also what exactly are the plans? Baritone multi scale with a jumbo body? And they will offer a standard sized multi scale OM as well? Is that correct?

Yes, they are a standard Bari, and a multi-scale bari set. These will most likely be sold separately so that the costs can be kept to a reasonable level. Right now, there are no plans to do a MS version of the OM or SJ plans, but if there seems to be sufficient interest we would certainly develop them.

Great, I would be interested the OM and SJ multiscale plans in addition to the bari and the bari MS plans. What is the body shape of the Bari and the Bari MS plans? Regular D? Cutaway? Sorry, I missed the conversation on the development of these plans. I only know that they exist and I have been anxious to get my hands on them, so that I can build them and get my hands on the guitars!!!

Hey Brock,
I emailed Stew Mac and got no response. So I called them on Skype to speak with a rep and ask about the plans. She had no clue what I was talking about. I take it that it's going to be a while?

Yeah, that isn't how it works. I am not surprised they didn't know anything about it. The folks answering the phones are not the ones reviewing the plans. :-)

We will let you know when they are ready.

Hello all,
Any word on these plans of late? I'm really looking forward to starting this build.
