Hi Phil,
Welcome. I imagine you'll hear this a lot but you'd be better off selling the JM and buying an OM. Trying to convert a 0000 body to an OM body would involve taking the 0000 completely apart, probably rebending the sides and cutting to the new size as well as cutting the top and back to the new size. The top and back would most likely have to be rebraced and the bridge and bridge plate relocated to compensate for the shorter body length. I imagine for what it would cost, you could buy a nice custom guitar.
Regards,
Ed
