Even the very slight convex \u201cdoming\u201d on the belly of the liuto forte is enough to prevent this depression, or \u201cdishing\u201d effect. One hundred-year-old Spanish guitars which received the correct doming of the belly show no evidence today of a tendency to sink inwards at the bridge.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2350\" src=\"https:\/\/liuto-forte.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/16-5123.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/liuto-forte.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/16-5123.jpg 570w, https:\/\/liuto-forte.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/16-5123-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Belly In general, historical lutes have a completely flat belly.
