Hello, I am making a contraguitar or doublebass guitar (tuned an octave lower from a normal classical guitar).

Mensur 750mm. I think these strings will do:

Have any of you seen plans or made a guitar like this? Its for a classical guitar orchestra.

The Hampshire Guitar Orchestra use them http://www.hago.org.uk/guitars/contra/

Just so I have a starting point for the top bracing. Thanks!

Tom
