Sound Pure's Take

A gorgeous, near-mint McPherson!  In classic tonewoods from them nonetheless--the Brazilian-meets-Ebony tonal qualities of that gorgeous Ziricote are perfectly complimented by the lush harmonic content and impressive headroom of that Redwood top.  Dramatic and jaw-dropping whether you're exploring a new fingerstyle arrangement, backing your vocals with some rhythm or, well, anything else!  A once in a lifetime guitar!

From McPherson Guitars

Top: Redwood

Back and Sides: Ziricote

Redwood is similar to Cedar, warm, rich, and complex. It exhibits a slightly darker tone with less pronounced bass and more headroom than Cedar.

A hard, dense South American tonewood, Ziricote shares many tonal properties of Ebony and Brazilian Rosewood.
