The Tacoma Guitars "VS" bracing is a radical advance over traditional acoustic guitar bracing. They haven't "adjusted" a design from the 1930's; they have applied 60 years of learning. Tacoma Guitars braces are triangular in shape because they have equal strength to a rounded brace with less mass.

Their "Tone Shaped" bridge is wide and flat on the bass side, and narrow and peaked on the treble side. A luthier's rule of thumb is that low, wide braces are best for bass frequencies, and tall, thin braces are best for treble frequencies. They've applied this thinking to their bridge and it works. The solid Maple bridge plate is asymmetrical, and placed diagonally to enhance the dispersion patterns of our bridge design.
