    • General Information:

      This guitar features a 000 (triple "O") body, which is smaller than the standard dreadnought and orchestra shapes but bigger than traditional parlor guitar shapes. This guitar shape dates back to the 1930's as are many of C.F. Martins models. This model is based on the Martin 000-28 model which has a 24.9" scale and more exotic woods for the back and sides. It's like a D28 but with the orchestra model shape.

      This plan features our newest bracing pattern. The V Brace. This is a completely different patterns as compared to the standard X-Brace pattern that has been around since C.F. Martin introduced it on their Dreadnought series of guitars in the 1920's. The V-Brace balances the tone better and drives the sound toward the soundhole much more directly. Also the top will vibrate more freely due to the fact the only brace tied to the sides is the lateral brace.

      Structural support is enhanced by the enlarged bridge plate being tied not only to the top, but to the twin V-Braces as well.
