Members wtfg89 Posted January 11, 2006 Members Share Posted January 11, 2006 Trust me...its "select layered woods". Not alder, not ash(LOL)....just flat out plywood. Unless there is another wood out there that comes evenly layered with brown/white woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine appears to be a plywood body, with a veneer strip going around the guitar so you can't see the end grain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GAS Man Posted January 11, 2006 Members Share Posted January 11, 2006 Originally posted by jjpistols guess all you want - I've owned one and sold dozens - it's "select layered wood" I'll concede to the knowledge of an owner. I found another link to the Epi Jr that said "resonant tonewoods". On the other hand, in the past I'd found more honest descriptions of the bullet which specified "laminate".Having bought two laminate guitars in the past (one Squier and one Jasmine Acoustic) I'm never going there again. They are just the opposite of "resonant".In fact some higher end guitars have used lamination on purpose to hold down resonance and thereby reduce feedback. For example the ES335 or the ealier version of the Takamine EF341. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members harold heckuba Posted January 11, 2006 Members Share Posted January 11, 2006 JJ Pistols is correct, they are plywood. Whether they are select or not, who knows. I have taken a look inside several and they are plywood, no doubt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members seaofstrings Posted January 11, 2006 Members Share Posted January 11, 2006 Originally posted by RockinIt A huge plus one to this. See this is the area where rondo really accels. They dont use plywood or "select layered woods" in there cheaper stuff. Haha @ select I agree with you. Rondo is also one of the very few companies you will see do this, especially when talking about a $100 guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members firewalkwithme Posted January 11, 2006 Author Members Share Posted January 11, 2006 Originally posted by bmxdave Wait a minute. You already have a Fender Duo-Sonic MIM RI '93 and a Peavey VTM-60. Whats with the epi special or bullet question? It's mostly because I'm looking for a super cheap electric in the future that I can abuse, and even though the Duosonic is cheap I'm just too attached to it to throw it around and gut it.

Members wtfg89 Posted January 11, 2006 Members Share Posted January 11, 2006 I'd get an Agile if I wanted a good beater guitar...oh wait...I did!Well kind of atleast.I'm being serious when I say you would be leaps and bounds better off with an Agile.

You could probably get another Duo-Sonic for not much more than the Squier or Epiphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
