Yes, use grain filler with open grain woods such as walnut and mahogany. I prefer Constantine's grain filler (they call it paste wood filler) http://www.constantines.com/pastewoodfiller.aspx

You can read about application techniques in this thread: http://www.philcoradio.com/phorum/showth...p?tid=3461
