Purdy danged ackerate. This from Ibanez:
Biggest bout ~12" wide, 3.5" deep
Smaller bout ~8.5" wide, 3 3/8" deep
Skinny spot ~7" wide
See for yourself.
By the bye, the Regal is 3.25" deep...
Well I got registered at Ibanez and asked my question but no response so I took a measurement of the scale length from the image at the blurb page and worked a ratio from the known scale length of...
I like the parlour* guitar size. Fits comfortably while reclined in the chaise.
I went to the Ibanez site to find the body dimensions (bouts, waist and depth) but no joy. I registered at their...
At first glance it looks long enough to be a plectrum, but after comparing it to the Style 1 National plectrum at Notecannons I'm not so sure. The site is written in frames so I can't give a direct...
Merry Christmas everybody. All the best in the year to come.

Nor does she. Maybe the photographer was sporting an "I Love Heavy Metal" neck tie.
Ooooh... in-dig-na-tion.
The Three Little Bops cookin' at the Straw House, circa 1958. Dig that crazy lute!

Naah. Everybody's just busy trying to figure out those licks on their mandocellos and boozouki ukes. 😁
You're a hit!
When I first discovered this forum it was populated mainly by old-time/folk players (if you'll pardon my vocabulary) but since then it seems other disaffected refugees from the 6 string hegemony...
Ronnie, that is a hot looking box. And the bass player is particularly elegant. Hard to keep up sometimes I bet. Any more tunes to share?
Just to set the record straight... that was a tenor. Mea big culpa. :cow:
Here's the link.
At the moment (if you're least ways interested) I'm wailin' on my new Pignose. Just arrived. For my...
That looks like pretty damned nice. Will you update us as the build progresses? Tell me, what's with tuning one and a half tones lower than "standard" (CGDA)? Just curious. Not butting heads. Maybe...
Nice. Remarkably light weight haven't they? I agree with you about "presence". The plectrum's longer strings give the sound even more breadth, released from the higher tension of the tenor's shorter...
Hello everyone. I have something for your perusal and assessment: a Vega plectrum guitar.
I've found reference to it in the 1928 Vega catalog (page 22 of the catalog, page 25 of the pdf) so I'll...
I've been having so much fun playing I've neglected to tell you all I have a Republic Highway 49 now. It arrived just after Christmas. No, there's no on-board pickup but it's good and loud. Heavy...
Hey Ed,
This has been added to the FAQ at Republic:
"Where are the Miniolians and the tenor guitars?
They will be available again around the middle of August"
...
Thanks for the welcome Charley.

PS Don't know how the accordion got there but... enjoy!
By the way... hello, first post today. My name's Robert. I'm a Regal player. Yes, I wear a crown. Found my tenor in a 2nd hand shop a year and a half ago - reignited my interest in guitars after a...
Where is the factory Annette?
