what finish to do you put on rare woods generally speaking? For
example they had lots and lots of zebrawood, and two huge slabs
of Bubinga - rough cut with bark on them, along with some Bolivian
Rosewood and Mango. I can't see anyone staining wood like that,
so is it generally a simple varnish or wax as the finish?

Bubinga is popular for recorder makers, and you'd just oil it
for that.

So it sounds like from yours and the previous poster that rare woods get oil
or clear finishes. Generally speaking that is.
