  • Yes as I recall I did use a single brace on the (plywood) soundboard. It isn't very loud at all but sounds very much like a real upright. A proper tone wood soundboard would be a lot better, volume wise.

  • Did you put any bracing under the sound board?  I like the tail piece and bridge. 

  • Lots of character Mathew!   Got some good ideas from you so thanks for posting!   I've been wanting to rebuild my washtub bass to be set up more like this one.   I built mine using the metal bottom as the sound board.  Works but not great.  I suspect yours is louder!
