Thanks John... This won't have Bruce's signature cutaway which merges the aesthetics of a Venetian into a Florentine cutaway. This will have a Venetian cutaway. My understanding of its origin is it resulted from a "happy accident". He was bending a Venetian cutaway and the side broke. He improvised what we see today which has evolved into one of his "signatures".
