• 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!

It's probably a long shot but have any of you come across this brand?

I've stripped the paint off one of these for the purpose of staining it and the body is supposed to be mahogany with a maple veneer but, the colour of the top veneer is much lighter than the back and sides. The colour of the back and sides is definitely not maple though.

By any chance, would any of you know if certain manufacturers use different veneers for different parts of a body and what the usual combinations might be?
