But the rosewood Cordobas that I've had were more full-bodied than the ziricotes. It definitely sits right between cypress and rosewood, combining traits of each.

Thanks a million! That clears up the muddy water for me very much. I am still on the fence about whether to buy a GK Pro blanca or this Ziricote model. I rarely play plugged in, so if tone is pretty consistent between the Studio and Pro blanca, I don't see much advantage to the additional purchase of the same (tonal guitar). However, I will take solid wood all day long over a laminate if there is tremendous differences in tone. I did not find that to be the case looking at the C7 and C10 (that I purchased), but the C10 was a factory blem and I was able to acquire for just a couple hundred dollars more than a new C7.
