Yep. Not sure of the name, but I have one. It's a straight end longbow, 66", 59#@28", made from actionwood of some type. Great shooter. Here's a couple of pics:

Jeff also made them in a forward handle model. I have two of them. Never heard of them being called the American Model though.

Here's a pic unstrung. Just a slight amount of reflex in the limbs.
