It just seemed odd to me that there were 'no' screws loose out of that number................if it had been a grand I would have expected several loose screws and would not have been not been surprised to find them. No "connection" was intended that is why I used the ( )s :-). It is an altogether interesting plate design with screws running completely around the perimeter with the exception of a 24" stretch in the bass..... In addition to the plate design, the soundboard has cutoffs in the top left hand and bottom right hand corners thus effectively giving a kinda odd trapezoidal/rectangular shape to the speaking/crowned area of the board Jim Bryant (FL)
