I am planning to buy exact same model 456e2, is this laminated top or solid spruce? ?t really means a lot to me. Thanks

The Hofner Model 456 and its various versions never had spruce tops, laminated or carved. They were always built with laminated maple top plates, back plates and rims.
The model 457 and its various versions had spruce top plates - early versions with carved spruce tops; later versions with laminated spruce tops.
