Philapete Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Is the 516 semi or hollow body? Some sources say hollow some say semi. Some say it is the precursor of the kb groove master which is apparently hollow? There is a 516 on reverb at sound pure. They say it is semi hollow but it looks very thin to be a 516. Maybe a custom? Has anyone seen a groove master for sale? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
