I would be trusting to Nick on the impact of a short scale.

Builders generally know where their sweet spots are, and what they can achieve, and I tend to trust them. He's been building for a long time.
I have a 14 fret - OM and would not change a thing. It's a delightful guitar. Light, with impressive and startling dynamics. I've had many people comment on the sweetness and engulfing tone they hear.
Look forward to seeing the end result.
