If I ever see western redcedar with rosewood in the local guitar stores I'd like to hear how it sounds.

Presently I've got 2 Teton guitars with redcedar and mahogany. One is the 6 string I posted earlier. The other is a Teton 12 string that I chose over a 12 string Martin with spruce and a back I don't remember. The Teton sounded better to me but I don't know if that was due to the wood differences.

Furch. I have a cedar/mahogany and a cedar/rosewood. Both are very well made. The cedar/mahogany is surprisingly loud.

+1 on the Eastman E2OM - I just got one, and it has a wonderful tone at any price!
