I'm assuming here but here's my 2 cents. I beleive that those guitars have the same laminate process my old Sigma has which is a laminate rosewood but its all rosewood layered ? In stead of cheap wood with rosewood outer layer for show. My old Sigma sounds great and I always just thought it was solid wood but looking inside the grain doesn't match up to the back. This one was made in 1970 so I'm guessing these days that process has been scrapped to save even more costs. I've seen a lot of those red label yamahas for sale recently for crazy cash .never heard one but I bet they sound pretty nice
