I know that some builders believe that an extended fretboard can dampen or reduce vibrations to the top. Some think that it has little to no effect. On soprano in particular, there is not a lot of area to the top in either case. I see that new Martins all seem to have the extended board.
Has anyone found that it affects the tone or do you think it is more theoretical? Has anyone done any back to back testing?
