As I mentioned earlier, I don't consider these "short scale" -
here is short scale:

They don't feel any different to me - only the width does (I play Knuts, Dyers and Merrills closer to 2" wide nuts).
Yes, the scale is Timeberline's (Rob's) thing. I decided from the get-go that I wanted to produce a
Timberline harp guitar, not a "Gregg Miner harp guitar" built by his factory. Saved us much time and money.
In answer to your other question, "Holloway" is now the Dyer Co. (newly trademarked). Which is mostly Jim Worland these days - he had his Dyers at the Gathering along with his Klein electrics built for Steve. (Scott Holloway didn't come down.) They are pro instruments built in Pasadena by Jim.
