One question on your lattice bracing for the back. Will the brace ends be let into the lining? From the outline traced on the back it looks like they all taper off shy of where the lining will end up.

Hi Drew,

Yes, I do tend to taper the braces down to nothing as they reach the sides on this model. This is a smaller very lightly built guitar and I am going for a very active back. I think it really adds to the fun of playing this guitar when you feel it come alive in response to your songs.

Thanks
