I know there has been a thread on this but until now I had nothing to show. Here is a snap of the neck end of the underside of the top on my resos. The plywood well glues flush to a 3.8mm plywood top. A flat brace (a coupler) ties underneath the neck block back to the side of the well which is further 'blocked' up with more ply. This is because this area has a trendency to dip unless braced and a conventional cross or lateral brace won't work. The coupler completely locks the front rigid.
I'll post some further progress picks of this ukulele which in a rare fit of creativity I have named, 'Black Dog'.
