ibreakemineedtobuildem Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 I have a piece of granite....I mean cherry that i was making a tele out of.Could I take out some of the high end snap,and warm it up some with drilling alot of little holes instead of a cavity and put another wood to top it?

Primal Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 If you are going to go to all that trouble, why not just go ahead and make it semi-hollow? Quote
westhemann Posted March 24, 2004 Report Posted March 24, 2004 if you put a top on it use a mahogany one.it's warmth will add some life to the cold,harsh cherry. one thing about a combination of woods like that...it certainly has a distinctive tone.all the high frequencies hurt my ears Quote
Drak Posted March 25, 2004 Report Posted March 25, 2004 Why not give something like this a try? You'll actually achieve a semi-hollow tone this way Quote
ibreakemineedtobuildem Posted March 25, 2004 Author Report Posted March 25, 2004 I saw that and liked it .I thought that bigger cavities would bring a lot of mids with a high cut. Quote
Guest Litchfield Custom Gutars Posted March 25, 2004 Report Posted March 25, 2004 I would like to reccomend a lacewood top and back. It will look far more attractive than mahogany, yet sound quite the same. Quote
