This may sound strange, but I've had two guitar repair guys check out my Red JF30 and comment on how they both thought It has a Red Spruce top.
The center of the top by the bridge has beautiful silking and nice tight grain, and as it goes outward, the grain gets wider. The outside edge on both the upper and lower bout has grain thats almost a quarter inch wide.
They took a mirror and checked out the inside too, they said the bracing appears really light and almost white suggesting that it too may be Red spruce. I don't care one way or the other, just wondered if anyone else ever heard of a Guild Jumbo being made out of this material?
