This answer may not be totally convincing , but let me tell my story .
When visiting the Cité de la Musique in Paris , my friend and I came in front of an exibit that showed a guitar shaped HG in parts , far to gone to be repaired . Of course we stopped and stared for a while and suddenly my friend started to laugh . - Look inside the the box ! said he . But at 5'10" I was still to short to see inside the beat up instrument, so he had to lift me in his arms so I could see the inside of the HG ..... Here it was , a nice round sound hole patched with some veneer on the outside ! No doubt the HG had been a guitar in its youth . When recycled the top became the flat bottom and the arched bottom replaced with a proper sound board . picture is available on the web on this site http://www.cite-musique.fr/francais/documentation/dossier.htm Having recently converted to the iMac cult , I can not go further to show the exact w-addres of the picture . In conclusion , my vote goes to the flat bottom . Henry
