No, it has 2x2's behind the joints, cut out with a dado to leave a .75" square void. This was filled with quartersawn Sapele` to form the dark red trim wood.
I used cheap virola marine 3/8's.
I glassed the insides and back only with 4 oz. Outside is epoxy coated, and we shoot system 3 WR-LPU glossy over that this weekend with any luck at all.
If I had it do do over again, there are a ton of things I'd change. Send me a PM if you want the build pics, I am holding off posting them till it is substantially done.
