PA-1 UNI-BRACE DESIGN

This is a new single brace structure that starts at the neck block and ends with a block under the bridge. It is the full depth of the body, but only about a 1/2 inch wide, and runs under the bass side of the body only. The Uni-Brace creates several advantages:

1. Divides the body which reduces internal air movement, greatly reducing uncontrollable feedback at stage volume.
2. Connects the bridge block to the neck block, greatly increasing sustain. This also increases structural integrity,
   preventing the neck from tilting upwards over time (a common problem with conventional hollowbodies).
3. Stiffens the bass side of the body, which reduces uncontrollable howling and increases clarity of the low strings.
4. Does all of the above, and still delivers classic full-hollow tone!
