I'm in the midst of my second scratch build, and I've been thinking about how to get the tone I'm looking for. It seems to me that adjusting the profile of the body--varying the depth of the sound chamber at the heel, waist and tail--is one way to do so.
For the pros and experienced hobbyists: are there any rules of thumb regarding the relationship between tone and body profile? For example, would increasing the depth of the lower bout improve bass response?
Thanks in advance.
