Actually Black Walnut is an American tree, the European ones are a differwnt Walnut. I have seen european walnut in all shades from dark to almost white. If you want to lighten the color of your grips, you can apply laundry bleach or Hydrogen Peroxide to them, let soak for a minute or two, then flush with water and wash with Murphys Oil Soap. If they are not light enough for you, repeat the process.
