Northsider Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Correct me if I'm wrong but, I was under the impression the guitar was all mahogany. I've since discovered they had maple tops. True? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce919 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 there were both. An all Mahogany Version & a Maple Top version. This one been on reverb for a while. Always that that was a great finish for an all Mahogany guitar.

Northsider Posted May 30, 2018 Author Share Posted May 30, 2018 On that one you can clearly see a two piece maple top. I was under the impression this model was a one piece all mahogany body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bubs_42 Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 All hog is warmer, maple top has more bite. Good luck in your search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakeboy Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I had an all-hog model I got here. It rocked hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
