PRS guitar. Am I crazy?

[ericsabbath]

sad thing is that the "Flamed Maple Veneer" is bullshit
it's a photoflame
at least the SE custom 24 I had didn't have a maple top at all
you could see the body woods collage through the "maple" top
I got really pissed with that

Dude, WTF? That is bullshit man. I gotta look closer at my Terero when I get home and see if it is fake or what. Maybe your SE was a copy?

most korean/chinese guitare made like this nowadays
some brands like schecter and LTD don't even try to fake the "bookmatched" effect and people still believe they have one piece quilted tops

first you gotta check the body collage lines on the back
if they're still visible on the top, then it's definitely a photoflame and no top at all
if it's not visible, then is probably a photoflame over a veneer
you'll hardly see a true highly figured maple veneer in a recent made korean guitar
