Hello, Emil,
When you say a "small acoustic" are you thinking a 3/4 size guitar? If this is the case, I might have something of interest to you.

Last year I completed the body for a style 5 terz sized guitar using very pretty bees' wing bubinga and a sitka spruce top. The bracing is scalloped spruce. I incorporated a sound port in the upper bout, which should improve the "playing experience." The neck (mahogany, not yet attached) will be fitted with an ebony fretboard; I can customize fret size and neck shape if you like. Cost will be in the $1200 range.

In any event, I plan to finish this one up in December and you're welcome to try it out. Let me know if you're interested.
