PRS Rosewood

Very happy with quality and consistency. Color was light with a lot of pink/grey but close gran and no open pores.

Quality of wood changes from board to board.

These boards are good. They speed things up but the quality can vary from board to board.

Spot on!

I received the ebony radiused and slotted which aligned perfect against a pre-printed paper mockup of my neck with the same scale. I also ordered the stewmac fretwire which worked perfectly in the grooves. Ebony was a first for me and cutting it produced chips and chardes vs. splinters.

Hard stuff. Best to use very sharp blades for a super clean cut/edge. I plan on ordering more to finish off my other builds. Thanks!

Nice Fretboard

The ebony flat fretboard came with very accurately placed slots and was perfectly flat. Wonderful piece. Only complaint is that the slots are too deep for the StewMac fretwire and need to be filled or the fretboard itself needs to be planed down. Otherwise, spectacular. Exactly what was needed.

1956 Gretsch fretboard replacement

The PRS slotted fingerboard from Stew-Mac was perfect for a 1956 Gretsch. This provided exact fret spacing as the original fretboard on this guitar.

Excellent (if you know what your doing)

I bought a piece of the maple, and it turned out great (with some light sanding). But I'm a beginner, and I thought this would already be the right size, but I was wrong. So I would only get this fingerboard if you know what you doing! Other than that, great for the price!

Perfect!

I'm used to use StewMac fingerboards (in particular the rosewood ones) and I've alway been very satisfied by their quality. Highly recommended
