Can someone give me the inside scoop on fingerbracing. I've seen some photo's of what looked like 20mm (3/4") wide strips perhaps 3mm (1/8") thick, maybe less; replacing the conventional style fingerbraces. What's the thinking here? a little more bass, without losing any strength?

Welcome to the forum, Greg. I don't know the answer, but I'll give you a bump back to the top.

Tacoma use such a bracing, they use hard wood, probably maple.
