I was looking at the Gibson website and ran accross this model. I like the shape. I might like to make one. The website doesn't give the measurements of the upper and lower bouts and the depth. Does anybody know the measurements? I wonder if there is a plan out there some where...

This model appears to be discontinued.... it must not be very popular...

Having recently played one I have to say it is pretty much a typical Grand Concert body. Approx 20" long, Approx 15" LB, approx 11 1/2" upper bout and approx 4 1/2" deep at butt and 3 3/4" at neck block. All guesses mind you, i did not record dimensions. All in all it pretty darn close to my SJ but with a looser waist area. It is a 25.5 scale. Of course my SJ plans are available at Stewmac (sorry for the plug but I could not resist ;) )
