Here's what I get when I click on your link:. I let it go for 30 seconds before deciding it's not in by best interest to stay on that page.my local Bunnings is selling framing timber. Have a look:
https://www.bunnings.co.nz/products/building-hardware/timber/framing-timber
the relevance to the current discussion is that a type of wood might be categorized based on its application. Not necessarily to sound 'cool'.

Judging from the context of what you wrote, I'm guessing that "framing timber" is a Kiwi turn of phrase referring to what we call "framing lumber," which is lumber chosen for its strength and low price, without regard to its appearance, making it suitable for framing. That's legit.
For the most part, guitars are made of wood that's chosen because it's plentiful and cheap, and it looks good — not because of its tone. It's not legit to call it "tonewood."
