I am dreaming up new ideas for a new body shape. Let's see what you guys have come up with!

Wow those look like some tight bends. I am interested to see how that one looks finished. I love the unique shape!

Verhoevenc I (think I) remember when you was drawing that body up. It looks great. I'm sure some woods would be pretty much impossible to bend that tight.

Here's one of my original shapes, but there's probably a bunch of others that are very similar. I call it a "LJ" (little jumbo). It's smaller than most MJ's and bigger than most SJ's. (15 1/2" lower bout)

Here's a picture of one on stage with it's owner.
