Ken did provide a spec sheet which I might have, if so I can copy it and email it to you. Right now I'm still stuck in Mesa and won't be home for 3 days at least.

Whenever you get a chance if you can run across it please let me know. I haven't made a guitar in almost 10 years! I'm working on doing my research to build another sometime. I just really want it to sound great. I am really interested in the jumbo/lowden style guitars because modern percussive fingerstyle is what I'm into nowdays.

I am attaching the sheet from Ken.. I have other specs for you as well, on the template itself, which I will photograph tomorrow and send you.
Good luck!
