    Future project: Is this plywood?

    I'm planing on using my bass for a project I'm the future but if it's plywood I don't want to bother. This is a bit strange but the unofficial documentation I've seen on this bass (Charvette 400) says its plywood (said documentation is from a single unofficial source so it doesn't mean much)...

    Heritage 810 Poplar Plywood

    After hauling an 810 cab around, it seemed lighter than the Heritage 810. I checked the weight and the Heritage is almost 30 lbs lighter. I thought the Heritage was birch like the regular 810 since that what all retailers state but evidently it's poplar. Doesn't matter to me, the Heritage sounds...

    Up for sale is my 3/4 plywood double bass. I purchased it from the previous owner 3 years ago as way to pick up the instrument without breaking the bank and it has served me well.

    Let's settle this, does the Ovation Ultra Bass have a hard maple body?

    Having a conflict with an eBay buyer. He says the bass is made of plywood, I (and Ovation) say it's made of maple. Every advertisement I've seen for this bass says it has a maple body, and that's how it was advertised to me when I bought it. Let's keep this topic civil, I legit want to know if...

The original cab was from a 1x15 Fender combo. I took out the head and nailed a piece of plywood for a new top. I gigged that for a...
