BR>Hello Lee!
BR> RL>> That's because they hollowed out the mahogany body
BR> RL>> and filled it with chromyte. English for "chromyte"
BR> RL>> is "balsa"
BR> LW> I asked my dealer if it was balsa and they told me it isn't.
BR>Wanna buy a bridge in Brooklyn?  I've got one for sale cheap!  Your
BR>dealer is either stupid or a crook...or both.  Gibson has been
BR>pulling that one for years.  They don't want to advertise they're
BR>building them with balsa, so they call it chromyte.  Even the guitar
BR>mags have made fun of them for it.  Do some research if you don't
BR>believe any of us. 
Straight goods here at Fidonet Guitar...
Chromyte-Who thought this one up?
Ovations are made of "LYRACORD"!
My condoms are made of 100% FLAGGELON!
"Space age materials..."
They didn't tell us that the space referred to was between the public's 
ears...
There's a pattern here...
