Like mahogany sapele is used as both a top wood and a back sides wood.
For beginners it is practical to buy a sapele wood guitar at a cheaper price than to go for an expensive mahogany guitar.
This is no surprise given that it s quite a hard wood but is still easy to carve.
Sapele comes from west africa and its scientific name is entandrophragma.
In fact many guitar manufacturers use sapele wood in their low end guitars and use mahogany only for their high end guitars.
