The website said "solid wood" but it didn't say what it actually was. Probably means that it changed according to what was available, or that it's a wood that they don't want to brag about for some reason.

Do you like it? If so, that's what really counts. Some "cheaper wood" or even "plywood" guitars can sound really good. :D

It's the combination of the feel, sound, and especially how it inspires you that makes for a "great" guitar! And I've owned enough to know that to be true!!!
