Thank you John...

The overall look is quite traditional as you say. But Bruce added a number of elements to the venerable single 0 concept.
  • He added a touch to body length to increase the body's volume,
  • Added a subtle 5/16" Manzer wedge for comfort,
  • His own top bracing scheme,
  • A long, 25.4" scale length, a smaller soundhole diameter with a sound port and
  • Cocobolo sapwood binding instead of ivoroid to classic Nazareth design.
I hope to audition some of your guitars in October at Woodstock...
