Re: Building a Chambered LP
I decided to take a slightly different route (pun intended
) than gibson with the chambering. I left wood for the stap screws, pigtail wraptail, and neck tennon. Everything else went. I am interested to hear how the pickups will sound with no wood under them. I wanted to get as close to semi-hollow tone as I could (I realize that semis have maple blocks running through the center). I am going to also carve the back of the maple top in select spots to increase the volume of the chamber. Here is a shot of the gibson CR reissue chambering:
