No, I guess I wasn't. This thread has derailed a bit, I know the OP asked about flatback bracing and things just kinda morph...like a conversation, from that starting point.
I think there's enough OT material in this thread to start a dozen more!

As long as we're at it, any idea if that HA bass was modeled after a "Prescott" that they used to have? I remember playing such a bass a number of times; a big, cello shaped beast that they were threatening to chop because nobody wanted it. I wanted it but didn't have the 20k they needed... I didn't even think it was so bad to play and protested the chopping, but what do I know.
