soundboard

This acoustic guitar bridge came unglued in a hot car and the steel strings pulled the bridge so the soundboard became warped. How can I flatten the board? Once that is done I should be able to prep and reglue the bridge. Any ideas please?

I'm currently in the process of performing a conversion on my acoustic electric guitar. One of the changes I'd like to make is to install an electric bridge on the guitar. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on how to still interact with the sound board when using an electric bridge...

Does everyone here buy soundboards from tonewood suppliers? I'm wondering how viable it is to source quarter-sawn spruce/maple planks and slice off some soundboards at home, either with a band saw or (god help me) hand tools. I need the maple for a lyre I'm planning on making a large monochord...
