I know this has been discussed before but... There has been some talk about the X bracing having better acoustics than the A brace. Where does the "fan" brace fit in. Is it A style and how does it rate with the others?

The fan bracing pattern was made specifically for either the classical or the 12 string, I can't remember off hand which. Tossing it into a discussion on the X bracing pattern vs the A pattern, really wouldn't apply.

Now if you want to talk about the VT patterns of the 70's.....

How do the arch tops rate for acoustics compared to bracing? Any idea how many models have arch tops for that matter?
