<p>That's too bad, Bill. I really like the way it looks. </p>
<p>Just a shot in the dark but could it be that tension on the front of the body pulls the back flat? It might be interesting (and expensive) to try laminating a spruce/graphite brace that is scalloped to see how it works out. </p>

<p>Beautiful guitar Bill. Your pearl inlay work strikes a wonderfully balanced medium between high grade utility and high class wow factor with a lean toward the high class. Again, it's simply beautiful (-:</p>

<p>Pretty axe Michael. Kudo's on the inlay.</p>
<p>Two "matter of style" questions:</p>
<p>Why did you choose that particular bridge assembly, and;</p>
<p>Why didn't you extend the frets to the outer edges of the binding? (I can't detect nibs in your photo).</p>
<p>BTW: I'm only curious. An answer of "Because I wanted to." will suffice (-:</p>

<p>Well Ned I tryed the scalloped bracing on another one before and it realy sounded good but the problem with it was the back arch whent flat on me so this time I thought I would try lamitating the braces but the same thing has happend to this one so I am going to take the back off and put other bracing in it. I wish I new the answer why they go flat as it don't happen until you get it together.I had the back of this one sitting on the bench for two months before I put it together and it was…</p>

I wish I new the answer why they go flat as it don't happen until you get it together.I had the back of this one sitting on the bench for two months before I put it together and it was fine until after I put it together.It has me baffled .I had even made the arch on my jig deeper to see if that would make it stay arched but no luck. I guess it's just one of those things that don't wan't to work out .Thanks for the interest Bill............ </p> Bill, that's beautiful.

<p>Bill, that's beautiful. Maybe I'm showing my ignorance here but I've never noticed scalloped back bracing before. It looks cool! Do you think it adds anything to the overall tone of the guitar?</p>
