I x-rayed my 'bird and thought the pics were pretty cool. The chambers are much bigger than I would have guessed.

I wondered the very same thing, It does look like it's hollow under the bridgewow...those are big chambers. Hey I wonder what's going on under the bridge? Almost looks hollow...but I'm guessing that's not the case...is it?
I'm working on that very thing right now[/QUOTE]''That would make a very cool wall poster...

Wow! I hope my pic didn't reveal any trade secrets!I visited the Corona factory shortly after they moved Guild construction over there. I noticed a stack of BB blanks chambered out and mentioned the hollowness under the bridge. Red Dave, who was running the bodies, said the Guild guys insisted that it be there. When I got home I yanked the threaded post on a Nightbird and fed a guitar string down it...it's also hollow under there.
This is a very interesting design aspect, one I've not seen repeated on any other semi-hollow builds.
Well, I guess you'd have to define really light. I just did a left arm - right arm comparison with my 3 other electrics. Definately lighter than my Les Paul, about the same as my S100, and heavier than my Strat.Cool, so are these guitars really light?
Cool, so are these guitars really light?
That's roughly what they are:Interesting tailpin!
