Ah - that explains why my home-made is so heavy - a 2" plank of ash laminated to a 1" plank of mahogany. I wasn't aware they drilled LPs out as a matter of course. I love the weight of mine - the heavier the better. I even have a solid brass cover plate over the electrics cavity.
You got any pics of it? Sounds like a "SteamPunk" guitar.
Hmmm, chambered guitars... do we want to get into a discussion about Tone Chambers.
I'll weigh my Crimson at some point and see how heavy it is and my Washburn. My Washburn is really heavy - the only guitar I've played that was heavier than my old Tele - which was really heavy.
I'm gonna test a 2016 Les Paul at lunchtime today.
