[CAUT] killer half-octave

[Cy Shuster]

Then you'd have a centrifugal tension resonator, instead of a centripetal one?

  The assumption seems to be that this device works by adding "tension" and perhaps "recrowns" the soundboard.

  Suppose, however that it just works by stiffening the belly rail and connecting it to the mass of the rim.  What would happen if you turned the turnbuckle the other way, just enough to add a little compression between the belly rail and the rim?
