    Well, you never know, but I'd think the body is too thin for chambers.

    I can't imagine since it's a solid piece of mahogany.

    I actually have a 61 RI that weighs as much as my LP. First one this heavy I've ever seen.

    My SG is heavy. well, heavier than other SG's I've played, and I like it a lot!

    chambered SG's would start feeling like Hofner violin basses I think....

    no chambers. Just a slab of mahogany. The LP chambers are covered by the maple top.
