What south american wood it is similar at the north america MOHAGANY wood ?

Question: MOHAGANY wood it is heavy ,strong ?

Answer: Let me clear the air with the comment Mahogany comes from Central and South America. The mountain mahogany of North America may be similar in color but can't be used for furniture like true Mahogany. Some drum makers try to substitute Philippino mahogany for the drums but it won't sound as rich as true mahogany which incidently is on the endangered species list.
