One quick question from the list, does the O - Concert only refer to the 14 fret to the body version. If so did Martin have a different body name for the 12 fret to the body version.

That's cool. Would someone be willing to put basic sizes up for the different models?

Rod,

If you go to the link "bluescreek" mentioned, you'll find all the
sizes listed- hit the "Body Size Designation" tab on the top
list.
