The only time I've seen something similar, there was a footprint on the soundboard... ;-{

Two instances of the same very rare phenomenon? An undetected crack when 
built? Seems unlikely to me. 

Perhaps a misplaced clamp during construction? As well as asking a lot 
of sugar pine? Seems more likely to me. 

Mysteries. God I love this profession.
