lozbass Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 +1 - it's definitely mahogany. Looks like a very nice flame maple cap too. I think that Alembic use mahogany as the core body wood in a large majority of builds. Other timbers are available as options (vermillion, myrtle, maple etc.) but high grade mahogany appears to be the staple - ineed, the manogany body of your Orion looks to have some lovely figuring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
