The Grebe that I worked on looked a lot like walnut until I got further down into the veneer.  I did a bunch of looking around on the web and decided it was a form of mahogany from Cuba, which was very much used here until the 1940's.  The grain is quite different from the typical mahogany we now get - closer to walnut.  I know next to nothing about wood and veneers, but that's the conclusion I came to.  Could be yours is the same.
