I have asked myself a lot of the above questions about the cornerless bass I am making now. Since I don't have an actual specimen that I am copying I am going by the old trusted method of seat-of-the-pants. My side cross braces are going to be minimal so as not to impede movement. I am just getting back to it now after a bunch of repairs and student set ups.
My side wood is giving me some problem with unintentional bumps, but I am ironing them out with some luck.
Arnold, did you use regular lining on the ergo or did you beef them up on the lower bout?
