Re: What If Top Wood Grain Was Askew?
isn't there anisotropic variation that's sort of fundamental to the way guitars are built and braced?
(I just wanted to use a big and hard-to-pronounce word.)
Notwithstanding John's point about run-out and joint strength. In principal, isn't the strength/properties along the grain different than the strength/properties transverse to the grain?
I'd expect a guitar with the top grain running transverse to sound different.
Yes, I'm an engineer.
f-d
