sound board material

[Farrell]

For Sale: six pheumatic soundboard rib-to-panel press clamps - brand new, never used.

P.S. I've got a bunch of glass from old fish tanks - do you think that is ok to use?

Seriously though, anything this radical MUST be looked at. Antares? Anyone else over thar in north-central Europe able to check this stuff out? And why would they use a glue for gluing it in and gluing the bridges to the soundcrystal that remains elastic? Wouldn't that just tend to dampen the sound? Such a soundcrystal would add new meaning to the concern of: "Are there any cracks in the soundboard?" And if you were to clean the strings, you would have to clean both sides! Just think of the $$$ you could make cleaning soundcrystals!
