The lower (away from the plate's tuning pin panel) 23 mm (+/-) was made up of 15 1.5 mm rotary cut maple veneers with the upper 15 mm (+/-) being made up of 1.0 mm rotary cut maple veneers. Actually there were only 13 plies in the upper portion. The remaining 2.5 mm was made up of the glue lines at approximately 0.1 mm (0.004") each. >> Del; Interesting description. Any further illumination/discussion in the book? Jim Bryant (FL)
