The famous Santos Hernandez from the book. (cant remember the name) has seven strut abanico, no closing struts and no bridge reinforcement parallel harmonic bars. The abanico is close to Torres/Hauser, just a tiny bit more parallel in the design. As far as I know, and its not much, Santos used various designs including 5 strut abanico. To your question about what is mostly used, I think 7strut, closing strut (torres) parallel harmonic bars and bridge reinforcement is leading the pack, closely followed by a Barbero in different variations. But I think most builders develop their own variation of the old masters I myself use Barbero as a starting point, but I work it very different from the original. I think the most important is to undersatand the bracing pattern and know how to change the small things in order to better the sound. Your work is nice and clean, and a nice piece of spruce. Anders
