I just uploaded this video of Al playing my wedge to my Photobucket. This was videoed at the Tony McManus guitar weekend last month at Elora Ontario. I deliver this guitar to its new owner tomorrow and am already experiencing the loss.
I guess sooner or later one of our creations needs to leave home.

Very nice! I like the shape of the cutaway. Is that your own design or is it from a plan/template?

The outline is the same as the martin jumbo and the cutaway was what I drew up from a outline from the Martin 000/om cut away tracing I found on the web. The only difference from a martin jumbo is the body depth is wedged,( Lindar Manzer style) about 7/8" shallower than the martin depth on the bass side at the lower bout and standard depth on the treble side.
Much more comfortable to play than thew standard depth.
