I need some help here. I can't figure out what kind of wood this guitar body is made of.
It's a 2002 Squier made in China (serial starts with CY). It's one of the Affinity series.
I'm going to put a different bridge on it and a couple of humbuckers. After that I want to
fill some holes (the tremelo rout and some of the rout for the pu's) with wood and
wood paste, but before I do that I need to what wood it is made of.
From wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squier_Stratocaster) I've learned that it's either Basswood, Alder (don't think so) or
Agathis (never heard of it before.) I hope anyone can help me on this one.

im thinking on a black korina body with a black korina or rosewood neck . the fingerboard will be rosewood . with one will give me a warmer dark sound korina o rosewood ??
I doubt if black korina should be used for a neck or fingerboard. According to the warmoth-site the wood isn't suitable for it.

I've got the same feeling. If you see the Dean V and the 58 Flying V from Gibson/Epiphone, then there aren't that many differences except for the headstock and the pickguard that Dean doesn't have. Do they have some kind of agreement?

Thanks. Sorry for not searching myself, but I never heard of Agathis before. I found
a couple of pictures and I suspect it is Agathis. I think I probably can't get that easily
over here, so I'll probably using a different piece of wood. Ah well, it's a Squier,
can't do much harm to it I guess.
