Bark and grain says Tulip tree to me.
 
I'm used to seeing that mix of purple and yellow colors in Tulip.
 
thanks for identifying it.

by the way, the bark that is shown in one of the photos is not from the same tree.

here are a couple more shots showing the veneer which i think is quite beautiful.
