Hmm, sounds like you're into quality German beers like eku 28 or optimator/salvator?
Before I forget: Man, the guitar looks great!

Sweet looking quilt top. Should come out nicely. Not a good choice of tone wood for the body or neck though. Mahogany for this is an instant tone killer – maple IMO for the neck is without question better. I'd also suggest Korina or Koa for the body, much more resonant and consistent. Thumbs up on the ebony finger board and scale length. If you’re going to choose African for the board; I'd suggest Madagascar (island tone wood) for best tone and consistent sustain.
Good luck.
