I am building a soprano uke (Favilla clone) using Honduran mahogany. The wood is very light and has an open grain, unlike the mahogany I've used before. When tapping it, it gives out a dull thud, not melodious ring. Does that mean that the uke is going to sound lousy? Or will it improve once the wood is sealed and finished? I'm still at the clueless stage of uke building, so forgive me if I have no idea what I'm talking about!
Cheers,
Bob
