I havent even seen one of these yet. I've only heard them on CD's, and I think I've guarded my comments appropriately in that regard....however.... I have a suspiscion... that if... and I mean if.... there is a weak point to the sound of these instruments... it would be the area from F4 to F6 having slightly thin stretched, hollowish sound. Perhaps thats the resulting tradeoff for all that sustain otherwise in these instruments... would make sense .. yes ?? Funny you should mention belly design in this tho.. I had been wondering about the effect of those aggraffed bridge terminnations and if/how they compare mechanically to the Wapin system. You've been picking up a bunch on soundboard design lately and seem to have a better begginners grasp of it then I do... what about soundboards do you think could account for the sound of these Stuarts ? In anycase... they certainly dont have MY belly :) Cheers RicB -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
