You can always replace the strings. I always look for a low action (how high the strings are off the body), and mahogany is usually the best wood for a guitar, in my opinion. Most importantly, ask to try it out and see if it feels right.
Make sure it has the following:Hand-carved solid Sitka spruce top
Hand-carved solid flamed maple back
Solid flamed maple sides
Bound rosewood fretboard with parallelogram inlays
Bound headstock
Fully bound body
Layered pickguard
Tulip tuners
Classic trapeze tailpiece
X-pattern bracing
25-1/2″ scale
1-23/32″ nut width
