Hello All,
Is anyone familiar with the neck construction of the X-175, specifically the 1977 and 1978 models?
Typically the X-175 has had a three piece neck, mahogany/maple strip/mahogany, through the years (around 1976 they went to maple/mahogany/maple according to Hans, so I would think that is correct). But for two years in 1977 and 1978 Guild used a five piece construction, maple/?/maple/?/maple (similar to the X-500 which used walnut but in different proportions). With either walnut or mahogany strips between. My question is which wood is used for the two darker strips, walnut or mahogany?
Thanks
