One of my favorite body shapes, I have done them as a wedge, J depth and M depth + 1/4 inch and they all came out excellent and with similar sound characteristics. I delivered a 28" Baritone based on this shape last November and it is an excellent sounding guitar.

I had one in over the winter. I was building a fiberglass flight case for it. Maybe it was just this guitar, but there was nothing to get excited about.

Sound wise one of the very best I own is a Martin HJ-38. Great guitar. My J series uses a similar bracing pattern.
