Really sorry to hear this, my first time back on basschat now I'm in the market for new gear.
Genuinely sorry for this terrible mistake, which is exactly what it was, I stood to gain nothing by lieing about the wood type. Worst thing is I clearly remember lookup the serial number myself before posting on here and there it is...clear as day, switch websites to copy full spec, copy and paste error at the highest level.
I know it's not much consolation for your disappointment, especially after so much time has passed, but I truly am sorry.
