Central and western Africa.
Despite it being Indian Rosewood; the fingerboard almost looks like it, too.
Usually used as an alternative in acoustics in lieu of mahogany.

Edit: Sorry Monkey Man, didn't mean to ChatGPT your post into my own words, lol.

As someone once said in a classic, "You like it? It's yours."

Reminds me of the AT300

Thanks for enlightening me, Lisa

This was the exact vibe I was going for....

I liked the tone of the AT, but there were some items that weren't to my taste. AT likes his bridge flush on the body, I like mine floating and recessed. The AT uses noiseless SC sized pups, I like traditional SC pups. Also, I've learned that the SSH when split does an awesome job of emulating a traditional strat SC pup..

It's steep, but I sold other gear to fund it. It plays amazingly. I was going to use it for my gig tonight, but I need my Modern with its 24 frets for three of the tunes in our setlist. I'll use it next Sunday after we modify our setlist slightly...

Ayyy nice.

I still think Resolution was his best sounding period
