Topic: Is the Bonaburst Chambered?

I am probably researching too much and getting all kinds of bad info.  But are the Bonabursts either weight-relieved or chambered?  Seems hard to believe when they are usually close to 9 pounds in weight.

I believe they are weight relieved.

Has anyone noticed if it affects the tone?  I have the JB Studio and LOVE the tone-it weighs 10.5 lbs.  Was hoping for the same tone if I get the Bonaburst.

If it affects the tone, it's for the better. The JB LPs are great-sounding guitars.

I have both a Bonaburst and a JB Studio.

The Bonaburst sounds nicer IMO.  If you get a chance get one.

p.s. This is not to say that the JB Studio sounds "bad."

Thanks for the info.  I want one pretty bad.  Just have to sell one more guitar and I am there.
