Yes, interesting to talk with him. He said that while wood guitars generally produce about 70-80% of the sound from the top, CF guitars have most (60%) of the sound coming from the body, 40% from the top. I'm not sure why that would be, but he said it's based on some work done by an acoustics engineer they had working for them. So they spend more time thinking about the properties of the body than the top.
