Go to any of the online stores and look for this guitar: Martin D-28 Authentic 1937 VTS Aged Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar. iIt will provide you with the exact specs for a 1930’s D-28. If I’m not mistaken there is also a D-18 of similar lineage in the offing.

Made my decision and pre ordered a OM18 Ambertone to replicate the $42,000 1932 at Norman's. Thanks everyone for the input. I appreciate all the comments. Now NGD in 22 Months.

In any case, good luck - I hope you love it. I've thought about doing something similar, but if I were to buy a PW, I'd probably have to sell both of my current acoustics, and I love them both and don't feel any need or even desire for an upgrade. So, for the foreseeable future, I'm sitting tight. But I'm definitely curious about a PW. I think I'd be more inclined to go for a mahogany too, based on everything I've read, but I'm not sure I want a hog guitar drier than my CEO-7, which I also can't imagine parting with. Congrats in advance! -Ray

Thanks Ray.
The biggest thing I am going back and forth on is OM vs 000. I am still not sure but know I have a little time before I need to finalize it. I love my current reimagined 000-18 so I figured I would go with he OM to add to instead of replace that but I did come across a video of Molly Tuttle playing a PW 000-18 and man does it make me jones for one. Although Molly could make a cigar box and strings sound good. So yes I still have a bit of back and forth to go but got myself over the hump of actually placing the order. BTW Ray - I fi had your stable I may not be looking to upgrade either. Jonas

I am not sure if this is the same guitar at Norman's but I am pretty sure there aren't too many 1932 OM18 shade tops that have survived so this may be it. Anyways a nice listen,
