Is there such a guitar?
How would I put this.
Im starting to believe that im model of a mahogany guy instead of rosewood. But my problem, all the hog guitars are too plain looking unlike rosewood guitars that get white body binding, bound fretboards and so on. Why can’t they get the royal treatment too? If anyone knows of any hog backed guitars, please let me know. Id buy one in a heartbeat.

Who would put bling on a hog: they're for strummers and cowboy songs!

Yamaha LL16M.
Acoustic-electric guitar with hand-selected, solid Engelmann spruce top treated with Yamaha's A.R.E. process and solid mahogany back and sides. A 5-ply mahogany/rosewood neck with ebony fretboard. Very cool looking. Maple body trim with abalone rosette and fret markers. Neck and headstock binding with gold tuners. And get this: $699 I have had the LS16 for about 6 month now and just love it.

Echo the above on these from Yamaha LS6M/LS16M (Dreads...LL6M/LL16M). The 6 is solid topped and the 16 is the all solid version. Seems to check off everything you are asking for.

Alvarez would put bling on a mahogany guitar. Their masterwork series mahogany guitars in shadowburst with abalone binding look fantastic.

Actually I like the relatively unadorned all-mahogany guitars like the Martin 15s, the Guild 20s and my son’s Cort OM.
Then again Taylor do mahogany backed guitars in their 500 series and they definitely aren’t dull! Some models are available with mahogany tops though off the top of my head I can’t remember which...

Well Taylor had two limited editions that might float the boat:

My Gibson j-45 is kinda attractive with the beautifull tobacco burst. It has a lovely figure and sings like an angel...sometimes we just cuddle

When I read the OP I assumed he meant all hog guitars, not just back and sides. I could be wrong, though.
If that is the case, I kinda agree. I really like the Alvarez Masterworks with the burst but after inquiring to them directly, I've discovered they don't make any lefty models unfortunately (for me).

Yeah I don't think anybody does burst as well as Gibson. I also really like that Martin Ambertone, but have never seen one in person, just pics online.

The Washburn RSG100SWEVSK.
The 1939 Washburn Solo DeLuxe Super Auditorium 5246 is the inspiration behind the all-solid Revival Series Solo DeLuxe. Period details such as the narrow "Crown" headstock, 1939 Vintage Sunburst, Ivoroid binding and rosette, fingerboard inlay, and period faux-tortoise pickguard combine to create a visually stunning acoustic guitar. The Torrefaction process is applied to both soundboard and bracing to age these materials. Mated with solid Mahogany back and sides and a bone nut and saddle, the result is a guitar with a loud and fundamental Pre-war voice. The Solo DeLuxe Mahogany comes standard with the non-invasive Fishman GT-2 under-saddle pickup system with Volume & Tone controls accessible via the soundhole. Graphtech Ratio-Tuned open-back tuners and D’Addario EXP light gauge phosphor bronze strings complete this exquisite instrument. Deluxe Hardshell case included.
