Anyone know what Taylor use?
Or perhaps someone has experience building with V bracing?
Looking at a youtube video, the reflection of a sunny window made it look like the top was pretty darn flat.
Worked on a 912ce builder's edition recently and it just blew me away.

The name catgut is confusing. There are two explanations for the mix up.

Catgut is an abbreviation of the word cattle gut. Gut strings are made from sheep or goat intestines, in the past even from horse, mule or donkey intestines.

Otherwise it could be from the word kitgut or kitstring. Kit meant fiddle, not kitten.
