I am trying to find plans and any molds and jigs for an SJ or small jumbo guitar. I have alreadychecked the listed sponsors and went back in the archives. Can anyone direct me to a supplier? Thanx, Vic (8string)

The Small Jumbo is one of the OLF's most popular plans. They used to be sold directly but Stewart McDonald now sells them and the OLF gets a royalty.

John Hall of Blues Creek has molds and bending forms for this model as well.

Speaking of which :D we just recived a new order for the plans from Stewmac. Once again I have to thank you guys and gals for making these plans sets very scsessful for Stewmac, this forum and myself. For those new to the forum the large part of the profit on these plans goes directly to help support this forum. So buy 10 or 12 sets of each. you can never have too many [:Y:] laughing6-hehe [:Y:]

It appears we are selling about 150 set every 2 months or so. The word has gotten around about these plans and I owe the great word of mouth recommedations I hear about to you guys [clap] [clap] [clap] [clap] [clap] [clap] thanks tons [clap] [clap] [clap]

Hi Vic,

I am currently building an OLF SJ. It is a really nice build. The body is essentially done except for final sanding. I have had a lot of nice comments on the shape of the body. I should have it ready to spray in a couple of weeks. Lots of great help here as well if you go with MP's plans.

Ken
