I really don't know what's the general consensus on this one. I don't even know the historical one! For instance... What does Gibson do with the ES-175? Is it parallel? What do you guys suggest? |

Oh come on guys! With all the geniuses on here! :) I would guess it's best to parallel brace a laminated guitar but I wanted to hear from someone more experienced than me. On the lam project I'll be doing I plan on having a routed neck pickup. I read that the parallel braces helps reduce feedback. I have an ES-175 here. I tried to feel around in the f-holes. I can just about touch both braces. Doesn't really give me any indication of their orientation though. What did guys like D'Aquisto do? |
