I love the design aesthetic, adding sound ports in that manner. The bridge is going to have a ton of downforce on the stop, and equally upforce where the strings attach. With no bracing inside, I wonder how long before the top is a nice S-shape...

I'm not a builder, so I wonder, how thick does the top need to be, to accommodate the enormous downward forces exerted by the strings at the bridge? Or, just use spider web sized strings, 09's or the like, and maybe the bridge won't cave-in over time. It is pretty, though ;).
