Mandobart
Koa is a type of acacia. The tree is called Acacia Koa. I have an all koa ukulele and it is quite mellow.
I also own a mango ukulele, back and sides, with a cedar top. Mango also tends to be warm, but as with guitars, much depends upon the builder.
So I guess tonewood tendencies are the same as in guitars.
