For those of you who use Adi bracing, what do you use for the back strip. Do you make it out of extra Adi top material, or use a pre-made Sitka strip from someone like LMI. I'm thinking that there may be a color issue using a Sitka strip with Adi bracing. |

Sitka is pinker usually, can be almost white to tan. Addy is generally more yellow, and can have red streaking which goes with most sitka well. Basically, once they strum your guitar, they won't care one way or the other what you have in there! Great question, welcome to the forum. |
