I would be too worried about delamination for a double top, although I guess that’s considered to be a solved problem. But it would be a shame if the Such-and-such Guitar Quartet was forced to change their ticket to the So-and-so Kazoo Ensemble on arrival just because it was too hot in the cab on the way to the concert hall, lol. I think some makers use double tops to obtain a marketing edge. My take on it is if you can’t build a killer guitar with solid wood then a double top isn’t going to save you. It might do the opposite. But it’s a completely different story for makers who are on their game, in those cases I don’t think it’s marketing, at all.
