Good call, Dave. Can you say "acoustically coupled?"

You might have gotten more replies if you'd made the title "Topless Model" laughing6-hehe

It would be interesting to hear it on and off the table though, wouldn't it.....maybe we should email him and ask?

Just like a music box. Put it on a coffee table, and it fills a room. Put it in your lap, and you have to listen hard to hear it.

That's right Waddy. That's why I said the table top. One of the first instruments I made, many years ago was a stick dulcimer. No body at all. Played on the knees it made no more noise than an unplugged electric guitar but put it on the dining room table and it filled the room. The table becomes the soundboard.

So, why do we bother making our tops so thin? Eat Drink
