hello to all,
I would submit a question to you.
I'm building a new ukulele. After gluing the braces in the standard way I saw that the table (Italian spurce Val di Fiemme, thickness 1.8), was taking a convex shape, accentuated in the zone on either side of the bridge.
then I added a brace, as you can see from the picture, so as to have a slight curvature, in my opinion always provides more sound.
Now, hitting the top in the bridge area I realize that it has good vibrations and good sound. it's more rigid.
Hitting the sides of the table, where the brace is touching the top, the vibrations are reduced.
This was a instinctive modification and I have no idea what will be the result.
What do you think?
Thanks so much!
p.s. sorry for my english
