Ebony is darker than that - but that doesn't mean it's rosewood either.– TetsujinNov 17, 2018 at 14:24

What make and model guitar is it? The grain looks way too close for rosewood, but it’s not a very clear picture.– Todd WilcoxNov 17, 2018 at 16:29

My dad is a luthier of 13 years he says it is ebony. It is most likely Macassar Ebony if your in the United States as Madagascar Ebony is not legal to import.
Ebony. Rosewood is more open grained and less dense.
