Nice little Nuclear Family!
(I wonder how many younger AGF'ers even know to what we refer........?) |

Were they put together in a pit on Tinian?

Ok, guys we get the nuclear bomb reference. Since this is a sensitive topic (and has nothing to do with guitars), let's focus on the instruments and leave the commentary on bombs out of the discussion.

Hello All,
I didn't intend to wander into the sensitive territory here. The guitar on the left is a Martin Norman Blake 000-28. 15 inches wide at the lower bout. If you check out the neck, it is a standard 24.9 inch 14 fret neck joined to the body at the 12th fret. Consequently the bridge is shifted back quite a bit. The jumbo is a Greven Prairie State, 17 inches across the lower bout with a 26.25 long scale neck. Because of the way the two guitars are built, the Greven actual has 3 inches more of the neck exposed then the Martin, even though there is only about an inch and a quarter of difference in the scale length. Anyway, if it had been in focus it would be a really cool pic. CK |
