Samanguila, also known as Acajou, is one of 5 species of African mahogany (Khaya ivorensis).Although Samanguila is found in many habitat types it seems to thrive best in moist and wet undisturbed evergreen forest.
It is a light pinkish brown wood, darkening upon exposure to a reddish brown.
The heartwood color is variable, ranging from a very pale pink to a deeper reddish brown, sometimes with streaks of medium to dark reddish brown. Color tends to darken with age. Quartersawn surfaces can also exhibit a ribbon-stripe appearance. Grain is straight to interlocked, with a medium to coarse texture. Easy to work, glue and finish. Tearout can sometimes be a problem if the grain is interlocked. It is considered to be a valid substitute for American Mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla). Some of the most popular models of electric and acoustic guitars are made using this wood.
