Maple..
Desmond, to me, Maple topped basses that we make have a warmer feel with less mids than do Walnut topped basses. The Lows are thicker and the highs tighter due to having less natural mids.
With a White Tiger model, the Walnut core is used to enhance the mids.
A mahogany core would be different in coloring the sound of the Maple. Usually a tight warm sound.
Also, there is a bit of variation in all of the woods so there is no exact answer. Just the general sounds these combinations produce.
