Any guitar builders on here? I noticed the
brown paper information, this has nothing
to do with that exactly but..
I was reading about Martin Guitars HPL
material they use on the lower priced guitars.
and thats exactly what it is Brown Paper!
I found it Amazing. Its Actually Formica.
I guess they layer it and glue it, press it under
high pressure, until its stiff like wood, then make the guitar bodies.
They sound ok.
I thought it was interesting, I like guitars.


FWIW, I like guitars..and banjos and fiddles. Someday I'll probably
build something else with strings, besides a kite!
