And is it something to be concerned about?
Questions for those who've observed more Guilds than I have, for longer.
I can't remember if it's always been this way...I mean, I've never set a ruler against it like this, and to my fingers there's always been a small "rise" below the bridge, which is right behind the yardstick, mostly centered at the 19" (or 61") mark. I don't have another Guild 12 hanging around to compare it with, but I had my old Tak EN12C-12 dread out the other day, and thought that its top seemed a bit flatter than this one...which made me wonder whether this is actually normal or not. The bottom edge of the bridge is tight, not the slightest gap.
Potentially relevant things: 2009 New Hartford F-412, always strung with light gauge strings, usually tuned down a half step, and I'm about 5 miles from the Santa Barbara coast, where average humidity is around 70%.
Thanks for looking!
