I posted this on another thread - thought I'd share in case people only follow particular threads ...
As usual with Godin/Seagull, I got a thoughtful response from Michel Belanger about the new bracing. But, he inferred that the specific design/shape/dimensions of the braces is not something they share
"The new bracing for the Godin acoustics underwent extensive testing. Many prototypes were built before using the new design bracing on production models. The upgraded bracing allows us to use slightly thinner tops. The thinner a top is, the more it vibrates. That equals to more volume, and more definition in the low-end frequencies. The new bracing design is also used on Seagull Artist and Maritime SWS series, and S&P Showcase and Woodland Pro series models."
