Post subject: | Martin Dred back brace location |
Hi Guys, I purchased a Martin Dred template from LMI, (nice template) However I did not realize it was only the top template, For some reason I assumed the back brace locators would be there also, No such luck. Anyway, I'm looking for the back brace locations, for example, From the top of the back the first brace center line is ??? second one down is ??? and so on, Can anyone help ?? Thanks Gregg |

Taken from a 1970 D-18: Braces 1 & 2: 5/16" (w) x 5/8" (h) Braces 3 & 4: 3/4" (w) x 7/16" (h) Chamfer starts at 2 1/2" from the braces end, height is 1/8" where the braces meet the linings. Braces locations starting at neck block: 2 1/2", 3", 3", 3 3/8", 3 5/8" to end block. The back was .115" thick on this one. |
