What kind of hardwood is this?

[Brad737]

Hello all,

Can any of you tell what kind of wood this cabinet is?

Thanks,
Brad

If I'm not mistaken, that's Imbuya my friend (which I seem to recall is Brazilian Walnut). Unfortunately, it's not available anymore (at least in the US)! I'm hoping to find an Imbuya short headshell for my Mark III some day... Oh well, a man can dream I guess...

Thanks, Augustin. Sure is pretty.

If you pull the back lower cover it is usually, but not always marked in sharpy. Ie. Imbuya 85'
