    Interesting Fretty. The difference between the violin sound post and the one that was in my ES5 are the violin still has braces, the ES5 post was a 1cm x 2cm T-piece rather than dowel and it was glued in dead centre of the bridge, rather than held by friction on the treble side.
    It would be interesting to hear the difference. I might have to try cutting some dowel and seeing what it does to my Epi archtop.

    If plan A fails, remember that you still have 25 letters left.

    Well my curiosity is piqued with this. I am going to go home and get my inspection camera out and see what is in the depths of my Casino and my Eastman.
