David Love asked: 
"There are several claims and apparent assumptions being made about the
benefits having the bridge located in the center of the soundboard. What's
that based on? Why would you necessarily want it centered? It suppose it
sounds logical to have a centered bridge in terms of load bearing--maybe,
but what about the acoustical properties and impedance characteristics when
the bridge is centered versus when it's not. I can think of as many
arguments for not centering the bridge as I can for centering it." 
 
David,
To my way of thinking/imaging.."a rock, dropped in a lake". i.e. even
radiation.<G>
