All Mahogany Neck

You really never see mahogany or korina fretboards.  I'm guessing it's cause they're too soft, too easy to dent.  Your strings would dig grooves in the board

Well sir I think so too.

Possible to get around that though if you epoxy the fretboard, but why bother...
 
I'd say is if it's not at least as hard as maple, it's not going to work as a fretboard...Since maple seems to be just about the least hardest of most fretboard woods...  :dontknow:
