Private Stock Friday

That's gonna be awesome. Is the fretboard ebony?

It is! He said it was pretty rare to find figured ebony. I was hesitant at first because I don't personally like figured maple fretboards, and was worried it would come out too much like one. I think the vertical lines clash with the straight fret wires. I also don't like fretboards stained with colors because the guitar starts to look too much like a toy, if that makes sense? Anyways, just my personal taste, but my dealer assured me that the figuring on the ebony board would be very, very subtle, so I went for it.

That's from the tree that was just outside Jason Biggs' hotel room in the third American Pie movie.
