Rich, That process seems a lot easier. Thanks for your help.

The jig makes sense. I just carve the inverse of my top. Great Idea! Thanks.

I am working on a LP Supreme style guitar. I am most comfortable carving with a router. The problem I am going to run into is carving the second side, as it will no longer sit flat. I was wondering if I could carve the back before gluing it on or would that cause more problems than it would solve? I would appreciate any suggestions on how to do this. I have searched the forum and was unable to find this topic. Thanks for your help.

So, if I understand this correctly, the more wood you remove the more it resonates and the "better" sound you get. What I am looking at doing is putting a top and back of quilted maple on this guitar. With that in mind, would I have problems if I routed all the way through the center mahogany piece (except where needed to house electronics and the sides) and glue a top an back on? I have tired to search but my browser wont let me, so I appologize if this has been covered. Thanks for your input.

I am interested in building a Les Paul style guitar. After doing a little research I have learned (or heard) that the Standard models are chambered to get them to weigh about 8.5 pounds. However, they say the Supreme is chambered to get a better sound, not just to eliminate the weight. Can someone explain how this works? Thanks for your help.

I am constructing my first guitar. In research process I have run across articles written by Ed Roman. Those of you who know Ed know he is very opinionated. My question is: Is his advice accurate or is he just trying to make his products look better? Thanks for your help.
