Many different types of wood are used in organ building, depending on the organ-builder and what part of the instrument is under consideration. Wood pipes are usually made of white pine, though oak and other woods are used. Knot-free quarter-sawn white pine is probably the closest thing to a "general-use" wood. For parts with tight tolerances, such as the sliders and the tops of windchests (where the pipes sit), wood that warps very little are a must, so you'd see a hardwood like mahogany used for that. Casework (most of the stuff you see) can use many different woods, depending on the look the customer or organbuilder is after.
