What is 'Solid Pine' ?
Hi...  
 
In cabinet project...

What's different from Pine and Solid Pine?  
They offer me 'Oregon Pine Plywood'  
is it good as Solid Pine for Deluxe Reverb ?  
any advise please  
thanks

"Solid" means an actual pine board that is not plywood or particle board. Lew

laminated wood (or plywood), will provide longer-lasting, non-warping characteristics for a speaker enclosure...where as solid woods can have a tendency to warp with changes in humidity, tempeature, etc..I very strongly try to avoid particle-board (aka. "chip-board") for when that gets wet, it mushrooms out like a flat, dry sponge being soaked with water...hope this helps...Frank.
