    Description

    cigar box guitar fretboard Exotic  Pre -slotted fretboard.. purpleheart .. Condition is "New". Shipped with USPS Retail Ground. For your consideration i offer these very nice exotic hardwood cigar box guitar fretboards. Purpleheart a exceptionally tonewood from Brazil and central, south America.  it has visually appealing purple hues and excellent tonal qualities.
    These boards are grade A + and extra thick . Standard cigar box guitar fretboards are typically 1/4"
    These are approximately 3/8"  purpleheart is a extremely durable wood with minimal care such as wiping on a fretboard conditioner 1 or 2 times a year these will last several lifetimes.
    These are already pre slotted for you accurately!  19 fret positions  23" scale lenght.  if your not familiar with scale lenght it is simply the distance between the nut or (zero) position and the bridge Saddles.  These are slotted to 23" scale so place your bridge saddle 23" from the zero position for accurate intonation.            These are slotted with the most accurate templates and highest quality Fret slotting blade available to ensure if you use these boards your instrument will play in tune with accurate intonation. Slots are .023 to accept standard guitar fretwire tangs.These boards are approximately 1-1/2" wide and should fit most cigarbox guitar necks or just buy a board 1-1/2" wide which should be readily available almost anywhere. I would recommend giving these a final sanding with a fine grit sandpaper 400 - 600 grit to achieve butter smooth action and to make the figure in the wood pop and  highlight the natural beauty of the wood . Great deal on some quality boards that can take your next build to another level .much better looking and sounding than cheap oak or poplar fretboards most builders use and aren't really suitable for instrument building.  Be aware every piece of wood has it's own unique figuring and grain pattern. The board pictured may not be the exact board you receive but is typical of the species of wood in the listing.
    This listing is for 1 board .
    Price listed is per fretboard.
    Any professional instrument builder will tell you if you want to build a quality instrument the plays , well looks
    Good and sounds great you need to begin by using quality tonewoods.
