Anyone have experience building a guitar with carbon fiber and/or lattice bracing? Has it been successful? Do you get a louder top? I see LMI has a Courtnall plan with a lattice braced top. |

I build my guitars with lattice bracing. I think of it as a triple x brace. My guitars are loud The tops are pretty thin and the lattice is needed to support the thin tops. |

Steve do you have some pics? Or a website where I can see some of your bracing patterns? ![]() |
