Got lucky and found four pieces of the maple, each measured only 6"x8"x3/32". The size is what inspired me to build these small body guitars. Thanks Rob
Thank you Bruce. No need to live in fear of that sin...embrace it, nurture it, treat it like a friend. Once I finish setting these up (intonation, action, etc) I will be listing them on Ebay...where those suffering from guitar lust can ease his or her conscience.

Those are beautiful instruments Scott. I now have the sin of guitar lust on my conscience. ;-)
Thank you. The bridges are 4 string guitar bridge w/ adjustable saddles, like a 6 string hard tail bridge. Not for bass guitars, found online.
