I'm making a pair of guitars from reduced (93%) Martin Herringbone drawings. I've recently noticed that the Martin Dreadnought Junior's dimensions sure look a lot like the ones I'm using. I suspect Martin did something very similar to what I am doing - - - reducing their Dreadnought by some percent and carrying on.

I'd like very much to get some advice as to what cases fit Martin Dreadnought Junior guitars, as I think they would be valid for the instruments I'm working up.

Thanks very much.

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.
