Sorry guys I just got off on bending sides. I'll be making a 12 fret 00028 off your templates. But either I make a bending machine wt. the templates or buy one from John. His forms, the waist, lower bout ect. are 1/8"- 1/4" different here and there. So, say if I make a mold using KMG templates, the sides off his bending machines won't fit exactly perfect. I guess I could use his bending forms to make my own molds and your templates for top bracing and other specs. The difference of size off a little here and there for that wouldn't be too much of a problem. I guess I just wondered why most of the Martin specs are different? But hey, no big deal... I'll get it to work somehow. I understand different Martin models, the different years, varied a little when these molds and templates were made. I'll be ordering stuff from both of you so we can talk then...
Thanks, Dave
12 fret headstock top angle ?
