I am wondering what is the difference in btw chambered and non-chambered. Have not compared one side by side. It is being said that chambered body resonate better. So how is the the tone different from a solid body.
Really depends on the chambering.
The most basic way to chamber a guitar is to make lots of randomly placed, small holes or channels before glueing on the top. This will provide some weight reduction and have a minimal impact on the sound.
or you have the 'tone chambers' kind of thing which will probably be 3 or 4 strategically placed holes that will provide a lot of weight reduction and have more of an impact on the sound - generally it makes it more 'open'. . . god i hate decribing sound!
After that you are into the 335 semi territory
i would not say chambered guitars resonate better - just differently, but they are definately a bit louder when played acoustically and that is where you will see the most difference in tone. As soon as you plug it in, all other things being equal, the difference is less noticeable. . . but still there.
Its really a preference thing rather than one way being better than the other
