What type roof sheathing?

I'm removing my cedar shake roof, and replacing it with Presidential Shake composition roofing.

The present sheathing is skip (1x6's spaced for shakes), not solid, so I'll be nailing 4x8 sheets over that.

What type and thickness? OSB? Plywood? If plywood, what specific type?

Mild climate (San Jose, CA) if that matters. Usually no rain in the summer, barely hits freezing.

Thanks,

Gary
