Nice looking, but one can acquire a 1993 maple version with one extra string in great condition for almost $2000 less from me. With that savings, one could even fly RT from Europe to the U.S. to pick it up.

It's Mahogany. Has a maple laminate but the core is mahogany.

Yep, I have a maple bodied europa 5 and it is extremely twangy and extremely punchy.

Dan is correct. Maple top and mahogany body with more purpleheart stringers than I can count.
