Ilford Multigrade RC Warmtone base colour?

I wonder how does the base colour of the aforementioned paper compare to the standard MG RC Deluxe. Is it much warmer/yellow in comparison? Thanks.

When they were introduced in the late 1990s, Ilford MGFBWT and MGRCWT had a distinctly warm base. But they were long ago changed to a neutral base.

It has more of an ivory tint than either the regular RC or coldtone. The warm tone reacts well to selenium 1:9 which does a nice job of split toning. It's my favorite paper.

Thanks. If it has an ivory tint it should be similar to the FB version that I'm familiar with.
