I've always thought elites have pretty tops and a preamp. An AB-I with a nice top is good, but not that good.[/quote:2j7kct7w]
I thought Elites were just the top. Putting in a preamp makes it an ABII, doesn't it?[/quote:2j7kct7w]
Well, AB-IIs are entirely made of fancy woods, not only the top. Mine has a bubinga top and neck, walnut body, wenge fingerboard. They are also chambered, mine is, but I'm not sure when did they start doing that. I know that for some time they were chambered without f-holes.
