I've just discovered that my Crafters Tut Taylor,l Tennessee does not have a parallelogram sound well, as advertised. It has no sound well at all!
How might this affect the sound?
Everyone in the world has two jobs: 1) whatever they do for a living; and 2) music critic.

Very strange. I didn't know such a creature existed. Does it look like someone modded it?
Assuming it's structurally stable some would probably prefer the sound of no soundwell.

This might be incorrect, but I thought that open soundwell construction usually used a number of sound posts for structural integrity.
