Just wondering if Captain or anyone else can help me with wood types used on model 752 acoustics (made from '70 - '74?). The 1970 catalogue just says "Hand polished JET-BLACK top, back and sides"; is this just a way around saying "Cheap plywood painted black"?

Flatbag, it says in the catalogue that it has a fine grade spruce top with deluxe wooden marquetry around the soundhole, so yes its ply but not cheap ply :-)
The sides and back on most models around them were mahogany...except for the Maple body ones

This one also had the those cheap looking covered machine heads on it
