For a long time now I wanted to build a Martin Ditson 1-21 'Standard' size model . Does anybody of you know, where I can find a reasonably accurate outline for this guitar? Alphonse |

Jack spira built a replica of the Ditson 1-45 For Eric Schoenberg's shop. Perhaps he would be willing to send you a drawing. I happen to have pictures of the original templates that I will upload when I get home and have access to a computer. |

I have both the Ditson I and II (Grand Concert) sizes. |

Thank you! With the pics, JacK Spira's dimensions and Mottola's "g-thang" I was able to reconstruct the outline. Knowing the sizes of the different arcs, where they start and stop,flat portions, etc., make bending the sides always much easier for me. |
