It's just anecdotal, but the '73 D50NT that I've owned since I was a teenager is the heaviest acoustic guitar I've ever held. I always thought it was...
Clyde, I never looked at my Orpheum's bracing, but I do remember all the Traditional and Standard series guitars in New Hartford used CNC-cut braces...
I am going to hang onto this little F-20 and play it as a reminder that life is sometimes rough, but it doesn't necessarily mean that the damage you accrue along the way defines who you are.
