In this video are compared to IDENTICAL Les Paul with two different body woods: spanish cedar and hond. mahogany. The difference is BIG.
Why Warmoth don't use this wood? for me is bettere than mahogany...

You can get the same difference making two guitars out of the same woods, even if you use the same hardware.

Different wood is different wood, even if it's the same species.

I'd agree ,  each piece of wood has it's own character , density and resonance.

You are basing this on one crappy YouTube video?
That's not a good way to make choices on any aspect of guitar construction.

From that video, I seriously question whether he's actually changing guitars or amp settings.

I actually liked the mahogany one better. Less generic, more color.
