I've used a my Tone-Gard on both laminate and solid carved-backed mandolins and it's made a huge positive volume improvement for each so I will have to dispute the original claim that the back doesn't have an effect, even with nothing more than personal experience. However, a very many Cafe forum threads, including one very recently, also show that most of those who swear by one think the effect is far from merely 'minimal' regardless the instrument on which it is used.
