A GS Mini mahogany or an all mahogany GC body style.  My 422M makes a great blues guitar.

So... I'm guessing that blue dread might not be covered under warranty?

Brings a whole new meaning to the term "dread."

Haha! Yes, bit of turtle wax, maybe a John Pearse armrest across the top and it'll be good to go. However I'm concerned the owner may be paying medical bills for head injuries right now...

Actually it looks like this guitar has a Sitka top with some sort of toner on it. It's basically a spruce top 12 fret 512ce. Good guitar but not all mahogany.

i believe that you are correct -
the specs state that also & enlarging the pic, the top has a spruce-type grain pattern -
i like the mahogany stain on spruce &, off-topic, it would be cool to see that finish on
quilted maple or, a lighter variation of it on flamed maple (the 'tree' & 'koa' finishes ;) )

i think it's a nice guitar too & the finish on the top brings it all together aesthetically &
that the tone of the 12 fret is also well-suited to mahogany (all 'hog or spruce top)  :D

it's not about what you play,
it's all about why you play ...
