BILL POSTERS Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) Anybody who remembers 70s Antorias would probably agree. This might be nice if the price stays snsible..Certainly as good as some of the Fenders were at the time.

Mr. Foxen Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 The black of the burst in the sculpting says its not solid wood. I think there were a few grades of Antoria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one might be one of the Korean ply examples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILL POSTERS Posted June 9, 2012 Author Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) Dont the square fret markers date it to early or mid 70s then ? Didnt know they made hollow bodied ones. Edited June 9, 2012 by BRANCINI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nibody Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Everyone screamed "Plywood" based on the 'burst of my MIJ no-name due to the amount of black. Turns out its solid wood. I don't think the style and colour of the Sunburst are nescecarily an indicator of the body construct, though I can see why people would think that.

simwells Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Looks identical to the columbus I had which was a ply body so I would expect that it was though obviously can't say for definite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILL POSTERS Posted June 12, 2012 Author Share Posted June 12, 2012 Not sure about what the Bass bodies were made of but mid 70s Antorias played and sounded great to me, Only one I ever had apart was solid orangey coloured wood, similar to my old Eros, I did have a Bitsa guitar for a while that had a really really nice Antoria Tele neck that was made of laminated pieces of maple, looked like really thick ply from the back. So you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
