Guys, we've spent considerable money converting the Les Paul Forum to this new XenForo platform, and we have ongoing monthly operating expenses. THE "DONATIONS" TAB IS NOW WORKING, AND WE WOULD APPRECIATE ANY DONATIONS YOU CAN MAKE TO KEEP THE LES PAUL FORUM GOING! Thank you!
Are asking solely on Norlin (68 or 69)? Because, and I am no expert, but 50’s Goldtops had three piece tops. No need for book matched pretty flamed maple when covered in gold. I have a 52. No desire to strip it. But I believe especially that early multiple tops were not a concern.
