I completed carbon fiber rod install. Carbon fiber rods are for preventing the body deformation over long time. Also, the carbon fiber rods improves the side rigidness for crisp sounds. Laminated side, solid lining, and the carbon fiber rods reinforcement are the best recipe for the best sound board vibration. This rock solid side maximizes the sound board vibration with minimum enagy loss. This is the most advanced steel strings guitar configuration.
I also completed the final shaping for the sound board. I have tried different bracing patters. Now, my bracing pattern is quite traditional shape. I think the X-bracing is the best bracing design for steel strings guitars. After complete the sound board shaping, I applied two coats of shellac for improving the moisture sensitivity. I have been using the shellac coating for inside of my guitars.
