At Metcalf guitars, we belive that each piece of wood is different and requires the skill and judgement of a craftsman to optimize it's potential.
Big shops run every soundboard the same thickness, all top braces are cut on a "cookie-cutter" CNC machine and are glued together on an
assembly line. We take the time to analyze each piece and build to the utmost potential of the components as a whole.
Our soundboard bracing is based on the vintage forward shift X brace using the stiffest and lightest spruce available. Braces are lightly
scalloped to enhance tone yet still retain the desired power, punch and sustain.
