Sound port

Solid or Laminated sides? Ribbon lining style (kerfing) - rim profiling, contouring and the logic for those choices

Sound port

Post by Geocoucou79 » Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:29 am

Hi,

I would like to do a sound port on my current build but I didn't plan it so there is no reinforcement on the side for it. Is it a bad idea or is there another way to reinforce it?

Thank you
Dominic

Dominic,

In the past I did it several ways. During the building and on completed guitars. Also with and without reinforcing. They all are still intact over the years, so I don't worry about it anymore.
Delicate guitars are not made for coffee table treatment.
