Redwood is indeed great for humidity tolerance. But it is brittle, so even though the dimensional shrinkage is not much, it will still crack if braced in high humidity and then dried out. But if you brace dry, it will be more or less humidity-proof.
plain maple, rosewood fretboard, bowed forward. Ive currently got it apart cause I wanted to mod it to have an adjustable neck anyway
