Hi Steve,

Thanks a lot!

I am not seeing what is the body material and if it is solid body?

The neck is maple with indian roaewood, but how about the body? Is it solid body as well.

Thanks
Stefan

The catalogues never specified what the ST Olympic body was made of but most ST models around that time had Californian solid maple bodies.

I assume Phil’s assumption is correct.

Next time OP does a string change, they could unscrew the pickguard and take some close up pictures. Then we could all play ‘guess the wood’. :slight_smile:

Not a bad idea Phil! Will share that once I do it.
Thank you both :slight_smile:
