Thanks for the good info on the laminated backs of some Guild guitars like the one pictured. I know laminated holds up well to temperature and humidity changes, better than solid wood. When a back is laminated, what is the 'wood' on the inside of the back? Is it a tonewood or something else entirely?

Here's a great clip for 2 reasons,
1. - It's filmed in front of the actual press used to make the Guild arch backs. 2. - It's a superb sounding maple jumbo.

Xlnt info on all this here. I really appreciate the explanations of the Guild archtops and Wade's history of Guild was very interesting and relevant. I do want the very most guitar for accompanying me solo but it has to be maple at this point. I have other guitars to cover other frequencies when needed. When I play a series of softer songs or in a quiet venue I play my Bourgeois Redwood/Koa.
Thanks very much to each who has been helping out on this thread. |
