The seller says it has koa back and sides but looks like rosewood to me. Has mosaic soundhole trim and older label.

I think it's rosewood as well, but the pic of the upper treble bout (side) has some strange coloring in it......

Straight grain Koa looks like that. However with the dark color (or just artifact of POS camera job) I wouldn't rule out walnut.

The back looks just like the rosewood on my D-09...
