If there was enough money in it, someday there might be lab-grown genetically-engineered tone-wood... designed for uniform density & stiffness characteristics across the entire top... there could be different patents for different types of GE tonewood depending on what tonal characteristics seemed more desirable. Or not...
Or just skip the wood trip altogether and make the durned thing out of some high-tech plastic, top included, and figure out how to make it sound fabulous... has that already been done? Probably not?
Maybe not entirely relevant to mandos, but banjo heads of the same make and material pretty much sound identical. Remo banjo heads are made of plastic, so very consistent.
