Really nice grain to the wood.
Looks even better than the photo shows.  It is a quality piece of wood.  Very nice grain.  I didn't need to sand it all.  It was ready for staining.  I used an oil golden oak, followed by a light coat of aged oak.  I practiced on the back side to get the color I wanted.  I'm very pleased.  And best, I am supporting a business that is not too far from in Texas.
