Methos;

Alistair did the short scale thin-body with the seven nylon electric build. He would have given me a short scale on the 10 electric but advised the long scale for better projection--I rolled with that and in retrospect wish I had not.

The big problem, I think, was the thinness. The extra length of the 10 when combined with an offset sound hole may make insertion of a pickup almost impossible. That's a guess on my part.

If I make another run at it, I'll suggest a plate on the back for access to a pickup.
