I wasn't sure which wood was heavier until you posted it, but I would guess rosewood is only marginally heavier. I could be wrong, but I suspect the construction of the guitar has as much or more to do with weight variations than anything.... i.e. the bracing pattern, width of the wood used, bridge/fretboard materials, tuners, etc.

After a little more 'research,' we can consider the ebony fretboard and bridge of the D50 vs the mahogany counterparts of the D6. And only Guild knows about the thickness of the backs, sides, etc.
Fun!
