I know this may be asking too much, but if you could kindly supply the following dimensions so I could attempt to make a body, it would be greatly appreciated and maybe even help others.
What I need for now are the following......

1- N to F
2- L to H
3- A to K Straight Down
4- E to I Straight Down
5- M to G
6- C to J
7- O to J
8- A to E Straight across

Any other dimensions you might have time to add. The more the merrier.
I hope this is not asking too much.

Here's one way to do it: http://cgi.ebay.com/Mosrite-Luthier-bui ... 41599bad1f


I would imagine though there are more than a few members here who have a tracing of the body, etc.

Sarah has the best answer for you. Heck, I didn't even get a thank you for the neck side view that I went out of my way to draw just for you. :shock:

I had my eye on that template, but I'm just too thrifty.
Besides I don't need this project to be perfect, it's just for learning.

You drew that for someone else. I didn't ask for the neck profile. At this stage I wouldn't even consider attempting a neck.
I'm not an ungrateful type person.
Here is the link, you drew it for Gooberman in Canada.

Well, while we're at it might as well get a couple more measurements for the center line. Also, I corrected some of the measurements posted before as I took them from a guitar so they were not exact. I went out to the shop and measured the template for the corrected measurements.

1. L to H, 7 1/2" from top edge to center line and 6 1/2' from center line to bottom edge. It's a bulbous shape not symmetrical.
2. N to F. 5 1/2" from top edge to cnter line and 6 1/8" from center line to bottm edge.

Thanks for the info. I should be able to get a fairly accurate body from all those figures.
