My understanding is that laminates are tougher -- both physically stronger and less prone to cracking. It's the same situation as plywood versus solid pine boards.]]> Guitar Players Discussion gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-93871 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-93870 Tue, 15 Mar 2005 17:34:53 +0000
One of the other benefits to them is they sound how they are going to sound right out of the box. If you find one with a sound you like, that's the way it will pretty much stay.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Nick Torres https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-93870 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-93864 Tue, 15 Mar 2005 16:52:47 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion david M1 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-93864 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-93826 Tue, 15 Mar 2005 08:48:09 +0000 types of woods. You live in Austin? I live in Houston :0...
any ways It's really recommended , if you live in Houston to
put silica gel in your case if you're not going to be playing that
particular guitar... In austin, I think you have to worry about
Dry climate and cracking... I don't guess a plywood guitar would make
it as a family heirloom up there as yeah, once the bonding FULLY dries, that's pretty much it... but I donno. How many hundreds of years are we talking about?. Unless you like just leave you guitar on the porch at night
or something, I don't think you really have much to worry about....
I don't know about how weather over time affects the finer things....
like the fancy bridges on the megabuck acoustics or stuff like that.
I know in the Hill Country, you really have to worry about cracking in the finish. especially on the older guitars - maybe even coming unglued.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Racer Y https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-93826 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-7751 Tue, 15 Mar 2005 07:53:04 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion yoyo286 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/laminates-go-bad-over-time/#post-7751
