    the body has nitro filler only

    pics are taken by the mobile camera,dont show the real mahogany color (red to orange) and details.

    some friends of mine says that this is honduras or better,cuban mahogany,and that i'm lucky to have find one blank.

    weight may confirm this, it's a little more of the original basswood,kinda between alder-ash stratocaster.

    tone differences are huge!all the notes plays "armonically" better,sustain is increased,bass frequencies are no more "muddy",and the plain strings have more "body" for shure.

    so one more time again,we can say that mahogany it's not more "bassy" or "low frequency playing" respect alder or any other wood,it simply doesnt attenuate the lower-mid frequencies region,the wounded strings plays more "tight".

    now i would like to know your preferences about the final body/headstock finish.
