Forward shifted X bracing - The Unofficial Martin Guitar …

With forward bracing, the X-braces only cross under the corners of the bridge. That makes that area of the top much more flexible. Another less-discussed difference with forward bracing is the placement and angle of the tone bars (the diagonal braces below the bridge). The forward braced tone bars are closer together and placed at a shallower angle.

That position also dictates the position of the surrounding tone bars. When the 14-fret Dreadnought size was introduced in 1934 the main X brace was placed one inch from the sound hole.

Forward Shifted X Bracing. The way I understand the story is... The collectors dream guitar is a pre-war Martin. These are guitars made before WWII.

This bracing structure is mainly used in Martin’s 16 series and Performing Artist series (Martin D16-RGT, HD16R, DCPA4), mainly combining the A frame to strengthen the neck body.

We get the term "forward braced" from Martin history. It refers to the position of the bracing relative to the bridge.

Note, forward-shifted bracing usually has more bass, the rear-shifted bracing (moved down only an inch on the top) started around 1939 and continued until around 1946 and has more of a sparkle. This was considered to be stronger bracing. By the end of the war, they just decided not to scallop at all and use regular X-bracing.

As I mentioned in a previous Martin guitar comparison article, the standard position for the center of the 'X' (The point where the two Cross braces meet) is 1.5" below the soundhole. When a guitar is "forward shifted" this means that the center of this X is moved a half an inch closer to the soundhole.
