I think i solved the mystery of this top. it is hongsong - pinus koraiensis. 

I got a guy to cut some hongsong for an archtop and leftover for 2 acoustics and I will confirm it is, but pretty sure for now

Hongsong chinese pine arrived. 

It's a lot whiter/yellower than i thought. 

It rings well, it's gonna make a good top. The smell is very strong, still can't tell if the padauk+sinker cedar is actually hongsong... 

 Anyway, no knots, straight, quartersawn, what more can you ask for.

But today i also made some (surely) cedar (supposedly canadian) into an archtop blank. It's sooooo light and aromatic. Very nice straight cut too. Gonna get a nanmu back so i get the lightest 18incher ever.
