Bracing System is unique. The braces are made from tone woods mitered into pin blocks with 1/4" aluminum trust rods under each bridge supporting the sound board. The angled pin blocks and pins reduce the stress on the entire instrument, preventing cuping, making tuning easier and staying in tune longer.
