Howdy, WordMan. It's a 25.4" scale length. Nut is slightly wider than 1 3/4" if memory serves and the bridge is 2 5/16". It's Adirondack spruce with flamed mahogany back and sides. Howard integrated a bunch of style 30/34 purflings that he made himself. No adjustable truss rod and light as a feather.

Those are beautiful like all your guitars, Tony. I am sure they sound and play as nice, too!

I think of this as a poor man's 1931 authentic!

Absolutely stunning! This is my dream guitar.

A little parlor I dressed up. It had a surprisingly alluring tone, but after adding ivory, this little thing really sings with a nice, crisp tone and favorable sustain.

My late 40s Favilla.Im sure a real classical player would think its well past
its use by date.Only had it for six months,still learning how to use it best.
But I love it for folkie stuff.Has one piece solid mahogany top,and back/sides...Rough finish.
