    My idea for this actually came from the formicaster, which seems to sound all right. I'd just rather use wood than formica. My reasoning behind going with the thin plywood was that it would affect the sound as little as possible. Flood: What if I used thin pieces of solid wood instead?

    I built a homemade guitar a while ago using a pre-bought neck. This spring I'm planning to make my own neck for it, which would free up the old one for a new project. What if I got a comparatively small piece of, say, mahogany and attached the neck to that. This is what the pickups and bridge would be mounted on. I could then bend thin plywood to make sides, and create a top and bottom for it out of the thinnest, lightest plywood I could find. I know you aren't supposed to use plywood in building instruments, but if I use really thin stuff, and the centre block of wood is a typical electric guitar wood, and it's mostly hollow inside, is it going to sound good? Thanks
