That doesn't look parlor sized to me. What are the dimensions?

Praise to Ted, the Rainsong King! JR, your comment is spot on! The guitar is not even complete, and Ted could indeed take pre-orders today!

Is that a unidirectional top and hybrid back/sides, like a Shorty? I like the shorty style rosette too.

Also, is that a 12-fret neck? I couldn't count the frets with the hand in the way.

Any dimensions yet? Body depth, maybe?

The pic kind of distorts things cause you are looking at the end. If you look at the bridge which looks standard you can see it looks pretty big compared to the guitar.
