Hey Wease, did they put a whole new top on that 1537? If they did, I would be really interested in knowing if and how it differs from the original 1537s, for example bracing pattern, cross-section of the braces, and especially if it has the upper third of the top laminated. If you could get some pictures of the bottom of the top through the access hatch, that would be great! Rick - the response from John Budney is "The entire top and bowl was replaced, it has the same bracing as the old one, quintad, but does not have the 1/3 laminate on the upper bout inside."
Pics to come. |
