Sapeli is a species of mahogany....There´s also Sapeli Pommele, which is often referred to as "quilted mahogany", but is actaully the same tree

thanks Zerb...that's what i though but just wanted to make sure....now why did they have to go and use fancy mahogany whats wrong with the good 'ol stuff lol. oh well, it's a cool guitar i may have to try and find one to test drive but i never was a big washburn guy.
