Hey Tom,
I had a set of gorgeous MadRose sides crack during the bending process and I was so disappointed and about to turn them into BTU’s when Mary said … “whoa big fella. Why don’t you build a skinny guitar” but I resisted and said a 3” deep guitar would have a seriously anemic bass but being the trophy husband that I am, I humbly said those magic two words that every man (should) know … “yes dear.” In the end, she was right and the guitar turned out great, had a healthy bass and that guitar went on to sell several more “Skinny Slope D’s for us. Hopefully you can pass this story on to Rebecca and perhaps she will give it a try too.
