I'll use Indian rosewood but tend to prefer the darker type for looks
(formerly customkits)
Unless you're keen on wearing chinos and loafers I wouldn't pay TGP any mind.
Unstained ebony boards are actually a lot more common now than there were in pre-internet days

I’m not too keen on very white maple or completely black ebony.
Tone wise I don’t think it changes much.
Neck construction, headstock shape (!) and fret type change the sound much more IMO.
Stainless steel frets sound much better than standard nickel alloy ones on baked maple I find,
as baked maple sounds a fair bit darker than standard maple - at least that’s my experience from owning and trying quite a few guitars of each type.
The standard process for almost every factory using ebony was to dye it. Just to even out the colour
