Every looked at the Hofner verythin? I played one very briefly in a store the other day and I was amazed at how comfortable it was. Nice guitar. Check out the high end ones.

Ever play a Klein? Friend of mine has one. I worked on it. First time I picked it up I thought "what a goofy axe!" Then I played it. It's the shape that felt perfect for me. I'm going to build an archtop with that design.
Allows you to play with the neck angled up, legs even, back without a twist (many classical players suffer from back problems) and without uneven pressure on the lower back. I do suffer from ulnar nerve compression. I'm acutely aware of what exacerbates the problem. Klein guitar design was like therapy. And it played really nicely.

Sorry for my lack of participation in my own thread but I do want to say that all posts are appreciated and being considered, so thank you. I'm still trying to figure it out. I think a new guitar is really in order.
One thing that seems to help is to simply change up positions with some frequency so none of the specific issues are sustained that much.
Having a Klein would be cool. David, if you want to buy me one, I wouldn't hold that against you.
