Torrefication and Advanced Performance bracing available via BTO.

More European-topped models/limiteds.

the current custom sheet shows these options &
there are european spruce & maple available as well

the return of the 420 series maple (41X-MA),
the addition of blackwood models (41x-BW) &
the option of the HP package on SMO 400s
would be pretty 8), imho ...

&, perhaps a 318e ???

Do you mean options for Advanced Performance bracing?  May I enquire as to where you got your custom sheet, as a dealer has advised me that AP bracing is only possible for 600, 800 and 900 series and customizing those models, but not for example if you want to customize a Mahogany model or a model with European (instead of Sitka) Spruce top.

AP packages are shown for maple & rosewood only, along with
torrefied sitka tops, but like always, specifications are subject
to change & it would be best to contact a dealer to find out
exactly which configuration of options can be selected together -
i would guess that a torrefied sitka top, adirondack performance
braced, mahogany back & sides grand auditorium with 3.5 finish &
protein glue could  be possible, which is not quite the same, but close
