Gibson uses veneer and lots of it...Gibson's semi-hollowbodies like the ES-335 and ES-339 have tops and backs constructed of layers (either 3 or 4) of maple veneer. My understanding is that the veneers are assembled in successive cross-grain layers with the top layer having its grain longitudinal to the length of the guitar. The tops and backs are approximately 1/4" in thickness after layup.
Great, way to let the secret out! Now, instead of paying $500 for a Fernandez Les Paul Copy, I'm going to have to pay $538. You never consider the consequence of your marketing!

Steve is a legend, and is still creating great music. That Fernandes sounds so cool live.

Tremendous guitarists
Did anyone know when Gary started to use the Sustainer? thx
He's somewhat similar to Jeff Beck in the utilization of the whammy bar.
Unfortunately the Fernandes Guitars is filing for Bankruptcy 😢
