Both have Adirondack tops.

How would you best describe the primary sonic difference(s) you will hear between the two.

Thanks for looking and your response.
All things being identical the rosewood will be more blended and resonant. Generally, mahogany will have more note separation/articulation with a little less sustain and resonance. My personal pref would be the latter.
