Hey Dru, The Brazilian Rosewood sides on this guitar were a bit of a problem that I have never come across before, on this type of wood. Not feeling confident with the integrity of the sides, I made the decision to laminate them after convincing my client this would in the end, be better. I typically don't or haven't laminated sides, but, seeing how this set went, I can see why some builders do this automatically. In the future, when it comes to sides, I may do this again on some wood that is prone to cracking or on request. It really makes for a stable side set.
