    24.5" scale, 24 frets. This Partagas box is much smaller than most. To give an idea of scale, the grommets are 7/8".

    Thanks Uncle John, this is only my 12th build, if I count the two that I just threw together real quick with dowels instead of making necks. I gather my inspiration from all of the experience and insight that is offered here. What a wonderful site and warm community.

    Hah!  I did a lefty too and had to be really careful.  Nice build.

    Here is the build I am working on now. Just need to work the bridge and nut, string it up and set the action. This was my first lefty, had to keep reminding myself to build it upside down.
