I have had my CS 60th '59 for about a year and a half, bought from the first shipments from the Custom Shop after the 2019 NAMM show.
Tonight I was examining it and went all over the top, rapping it with a knuckle to hear the sound.
I am convinced that I am hearing solid areas and hollow areas that pretty much line up with Modern Weight Relief pattern.
Is that even possible for a 1959 Historic? It's supposed to be a totally faithful reproduction of the solid 1959... so what else could explain what I am hearing?
What if, in the rush to get them out after NAMM and after making a big deal about "bankruptcy or not, we're still here"... what if there just wasn't enough proper weight mahogany ready for that run so the Custom Shop just grabbed some weight relieved cores to build with and stay on schedule and on quota? "Nobody will ever know"?
