that the top on an acoustic guitar is the most important part? I heard something about a guy that made a guitar with the sides and back made of papier mache and a solid spruce top and it sounded amazing. If there is any truth to this...I suppose my squier acoustic isnt that bad, since it has a solid spruce top...
