Default Silly question about Rainsong Vintage

Not sure why, I feel like I am intelligent enough to make heads or tails of this but can't seem to.

Do the Rainsong guitars with the top that looks like wood really have wood in them or is the carbon fiber made to look like wood?

Not a silly question at all.

It is a thin veneer which arguably does more than look nice. I do think it tames some of the RainSong brightness without reducing volume.
