Location: Southern California		I was perusing Ebay and CL and then doing some subsequent research on the Ovation site and was wondering that if a model is listed as having a 'Sitka Spruce AA' top does that indicate that it is a solid top? For example:

Thanks. Rob

Location: Keepin' It Weird in Portland, OR		That has a solid top.
Usually if they say Sitka, or Engleman, or Adirondack, it is real wood.
Also, if it sez AA or AAA it is real wood.
But often if it just sez Spuce, or Select Spruce or Figured Maple or some other euphemism...
It is plywood.
