It's always interesting to see what solution the average person will come up with to solve a problem. |

Obviously a way of making sure the top and back are working together. |

I bet that guitar is great for playing heavy metal  ...no really. Put a pickup in it, crank up the distortion, and you don't even have to worry about feedback

One way to couple the top and back. I hope that's hide glue. |

Priceless. It would fit nicely in the sideshow section on Frets.com. http://frets.com/FretsPages/Fun/Sideshow/sideshow1.html |

What i'd like to know - Did it work? The bridge doctor seems like a "last resort" fix for a too weak top and bracing combination, but some people swear by it and build guitars which use it as original equipment. Sometimes these "Bubba braces" actually do work, although they make us grin (or grimace if it's a nice instrument) a bit when we find them. |
