    Default "Colonial Pine" stain?

    You see a lot of furniture with a "Colonial Pine" stain, a sort of orangey colour. I want to stain some raw blackbutt cabinet doors to be a similar colour finish and am wondering what stain to use. Seems simple but I own a number of stains and none of them are right, and as soon as I get confronted with stain colour cards I get totally confused! I know results vary with the colour of the raw timber. The blackbutt is a creamy colour, slightly darker than raw pine, but the result should be similar. I attach a photo of the colour I'm aiming for. Does anyone know what furniture manufacturers use?
