Daniel Sorbera Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Amazing!! I love seeing acoustics being built, and this one is so cool, that egg shaped rosette is a nice touch. Whats the thickness on that top? Must be pretty thick for a 7 string baritone. Let me ask you a question about the go-bars (since I'm going to be using them soon). Do you get good clamping pressure with them being that bent? Or would you get more pressure if they were slightly straiter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammy Posted April 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Cheers The bars apply loads of pressure like that - no problem! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verhoevenc Posted April 23, 2007 Report Share Posted April 23, 2007 Godin, the bars will give you more pressure bent... to a certain point! At some point they will reach their maximum capacity and cease adding more pressure, but bending them more doesn't decrease pressure though. Also, don't worry about the bends, the force in them is always, despite the bend, applied in a straight line between the two points.
