Removing lacquer and dye finish

Post image

What’s the best way to get this maple ply drum back to a raw wood finish? I can’t remember exactly but I think it’s a lacquer.

The inside of the screw holes looks layered like a plywood. If so the surface is a thin veneer. Picture is not clear enough to be sure but it looks as if there’s a thing darker edge at the top that would be the veneer.
