Hi all, Has anyone on the forum made pressed tops for archtop-type guitars? If so, what's your procedure? I'd like to try both a pressed top and pressed back, more for the experience than anything else. If it's something I like, I might make more. Thanks, John |

I've made a pressed laminated back with veneer for an archtop. It was not easy but it is doable. I used a vacuum bag, and a two part form. |
