Default 1972 Alhambra Woods

Hi Folks

Could any of you wonderful people identify which woods were used in the construction of my 1972 Alahambra ? To the best of my knowledge all of the surfaces are solid woods

Thank you Wailing

I would guess mahogany on the back and cedar on the face.

WM;

You might want to wait for other responses just in case I might be wrong.

Cedar for the top seems pretty certain, I'm less sure about the mahogany back... Alhambra keeps pretty extensive records, if you have a serial # you might email them and ask what they can tell you. Model number might help one of the resident experts around here dig up some further deets.
