Top Braces





I began work on my top braces. The main bracing pattern would be an X-shaped bracing pattern. The braces would be scalloped to add more of a bright and responsive tone to the guitar. I also rounded them off with sandpaper - just to make them a bit nicer looking I suppose! The bracing consisted of a main x-brace aswell as two long struts extending from the lower mid-left section to the lower right section of the top plate, and also four smaller braces which will also extend from the main x-brace.
