Re: RIC Wood Sourcing
As is ours, along with my computer desk in the same room, all Amish built. In fact, all the wood trim downstairs is quartersawn white oak.
Here is the wainscot we put in the dining room.

Re: RIC Wood Sourcing
I designed the wainscot (and everything else, for that matter, for all the renovation projects). I made a drawing of the wainscot on the walls before demolition to get an idea of how it would look, and again, after the drywall was put up to get a more accurate representation of it full-size (wall dimensions changed slightly from the old walls to the new ones.
This is a drawing I made of the East wall's wainscot during my preliminary design of the room.

The gist being that roasting mahogany
1) is done
2) brings little color change
Might discuss w/'Papa John'.

Re: RIC Wood Sourcing
Some of the first model 4000 basses were made with mahogany, but construction switched to maple and walnut as they were easier to work with. Check for more information in the book.
