"Slim Jim" was designed by the guitar muse Serendipity, and ended up about 25mm narrower in depth at the lower bout than I originally intended. The guitar is actually deepest at the waist at 100mm and drops to 92mm at both the neck and heel block. I was very excited with the tap tone of this one and it has come out of the blocks with the best sound of any that I have made so far . It has the balance and projection I was expecting with some really fat trebles and a nice mids/bass, but as I suspected, the narrower body gives it some extra "punch" which sits really nicely with Clapton type bluesey numbers. The 655mm scale length helps giving a little extra tension on the strings.65omm scale length is an option at no extra charge.
