Pogreba OM-style (bubinga)--one of a kind!
Beautiful guitar from legendary Montana builder Larry Pogreba, who has built for Bonnie Raitt, Keb 'Mo, Jackson Browne, Emmy Lou Harris and Darrell Scott, among others (www.larrypogreba.com). See also the profile in a recent Fretboard Journal https://www.fretboardjournal.com/tag/larry-pogreba/
Each guitar he builds is unique and there are no models, so I describe this as a "0M" based on the scale length and body size. Excellent condition. Comes with hard case. This is unique, so please ask any questions. $995 plus shipping CONUS. Pics and specs: https://reverb.com/item/18785380-lar...ba-0m-acoustic

Sorry for the mistake. I know the back and sides are bubinga based on an e-mail exchange with Larry when I inquired. His response:
"It is bubinga, a true rosewood ..dalbergia africanus......that’s a nice guitar ...I almost kept it myself...larry" Not sure about the top and have corrected on reverb. Thanks!

If I were going to hazard a guess based on the pics, I would say the top is one of the mahogany-type woods (Honduran Mahogany, sapele, khaya, etc.). That would make more sense for a guitar top.
Just FYI, Bubinga (and Ovangkol) belong to the genus Guibourtia. Some of the Guibourtia carry a common name of "African Rosewood" and similar. True rosewoods belong to the genus Dalbergia. "Dalbergia Africanus" does not garner any hits on a Google Search. Trade and colloquial names about in the wood trade. Having said that, one of the most intriguing Martins I've test driven in the last couple of years was a hog-top rosewood 000-14. It had a lot of warmth and depth...quite a profound guitar. I'd imagine this one could be similar. GLWS!!!

Thanks! I agree on the hunch re mahogany family for the top.
