Thank you...

Some more info please. What is the construction -  Solid top/back, solid front/ply back, fingerboard Ebony?  

[spyder]

 

It looks like the top is solid and the back ply.

I have no idea on the fingerboard... Sorry.

I'm not sure.

It's slightly bigger than a 3/4 but not as big as 7/8 I believe.

You are most welcome to come and have a look and play.

Some measurements wouldn't go amiss, most important for me would be the speaking length but overall height and depth useful also 👍

[spyder]

Had a good measure up....

 

Body height 113cm

Body width at widest 68cm

Body depth 21cm

Nut to bridge 110cm

Nut to ball ends 128cm

Total height 178cm excluding end pin.

 

Hope this helps.
