Actionwood - laminated maple, can be dyed any number of colors.
Actionboo - laminated bamboo.

Quote. . . bow is cut and ground from grey Actionwood, which is made from dyed, vertically stacked layers of wood laminated together under high pressure. As the individual wood layers soak up the grey dye a little differently, the finished product shows the typical appearance of Actionwood, with several shades from grey to tan.  
Probably maple, birch and other straight-grained hardwoods.

Actionboo includes bamboo (technically a grass and not a wood).
