real rose wood finger board as its pre cites and of course it has the 'right ' headstock.when played unplugged its very resonant.
even the poly finish is not too shiny and a bit dull. the build quality and playability is outstanding.the sound spot on. whatever that means on a Korean factory mass produced guitar ?.with what looks like a real Bigsby fitted ) last year off ebay and was blown away how well made and good it was. I got a Epiphone Casino ( a Korean 'limited edition custom shop'.
