Hi
I'm wondering if anyone has details of the laminates used in Guilds, particularly Starfires. I was poking around in my 1966 SFIII and realised the laminate appears to be mahogany on the top and bottom with something else lighter in the middle. Could it be maple?
I understand there's a lot of debate over tonewood mojo and whether it has substance or it's BS. Personally I believe it has some substance. I wondered if the laminate might be mahogany/maple/mahogany to get a best of both worlds effect. The guitar is certainly not dark.
Anyone got any firmer info?
