Mattia Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 Standard-ish Les Paul is between 1/2" and 5/8", certainly not 1" thick maple. Ever. PRS has a deeper carve, with 3/4" billets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherokee6 Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 Thanks for the info. I'll keep it in mind when I'm ready to build one. You're right, I just looked at the drawings again and screwed up my fractions. Seems to be about 5/8". The reason I asked about the chambering is because Les Paul has a number of LP's that were chambered (and presently in various states of repair). One I had seen last November actually had a sizeable tearout where the pup switch is. I figured it was a custom job, but wasn't sure.

P90 Posted February 14, 2007 Report Share Posted February 14, 2007 Maybe I missed it in earlier posts... but how far down would you guys make the outtermost (relief) route? !/4"? 3/8"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
