- Spanish cedar top (2-piece)
- Birdseye maple back (2-piece)
- Birdseye maple sides (2-piece)
- Mahogany neck
- Claro walnut and Birdseye maple face plate
- Cocobolo fretboard
- Birdseye maple fret markers (at 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 10th frets)

The Claro walnut, Cocobolo, Ebony, and mystery wood were all donated by my uncle, Gerry VanNess.
