Plywood question (newbie)

[Matted]

So...types of plywood - different grades/hard and soft are confusing the hell out of me.

If I want to make some basic cabinets that will be painted (or perhaps veneered) do I need to buy highest quality ply, can I get away with B / BB grade (or lower)?

Any help would be appreciated.

B/BB is a very high grade of plywood.

Thanks for the link - I think I have my BB and my B/BB mixed up!

Is this grading purely a cosmetic thing, or does it also indicate manufacturing quality (voids, uniformity, flatness, etc.)?
