Hey murray@

I like a nice wide fret board but I'm almost as at home on any old thing. Matter of fact the old Delta Bluesmen played what ever they could get their hands on.

A slim curved neck is a bit tricky but it's not so bad that you couldn't do it. I started on a cheap Ibenez dreadnought and still use it for some work.

The point is, start with what ya got, put some 13-56 bronze medium whatevers on it, tune up to open G and let the blues do the rest. ;}
