ouchababy1 Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 How can I find out what the wood is on the top? OR is it a photo top? I have turned it into a nice little monster. Rewired her and put all USA Gobson pots in as well as the switch. I replaced the Samsung???!!!???? pups with a set of Carvin M series. It sounds like a real LP with PAF's on steroids. I alco dumped the crappy tuners in favor of Sperzels. I would really like to know the construction of the top. Any help? Gimme some LOVE.
MarxBros Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 No photo, paper thin veneer over probably alder.
acewarslave Posted December 25, 2008 Posted December 25, 2008 when they say photo top what does that mean:-k
ouchababy1 Posted December 25, 2008 Author Posted December 25, 2008 Just that. It is a photograph of wood grain and it is laid over the body wood(s) and lacquered over.
ouchababy1 Posted December 25, 2008 Author Posted December 25, 2008 Ok maybe I could offer a better description of what I am after. I am looking for the specs. Where on the internet would one go to find such information. Thank you for your info. Also, there is a photo to come. I did a little bit of upgrading to this import.........

SkEpTiKaL Posted December 26, 2008 Posted December 26, 2008 There are no "official specs". I think what he means to say is that Epiphone doesn't usually offer Specs for Limited Run guitars. Compare it to the base model, which in this case would be the Studio. The "wood" on top is a veneer (not exactly a photograph, just a tiny tiny layer on top, 1/32" I think). The Specifications of the standard models are on Epiphone's website. http://www.Epiphone.com
