That's some kind of sandwitch for top and bottom plys! I always thought GB10's were made with a series of thin spruce layers.

Ibanezfreak1960 Username: Ibanezfreak1960 Registered: 03-2004 Posted on Friday, May 20, 2005 - 6:43 am:    So I guess this means real laminated spruce on top and real laminated maple on the back.

I'd b very appreciative if u'd let me know, please (asap?). I have an option on one. Plays like butter but sounds kinda stiff acoustically... That is: compared to older Epiphones & Gibson made in the thirties and forties with solid spuce tops (i got the chance to play some of these the same day...). But then, on the other hand, far better than a ES 125... Sweet confusion... Thnx
