Here are some exceptional Brazilian Rosewood Fingerboards. They are all very old, dense and of excellent quality. They came from a luthier's estate who retired in the 70s. All are large enough for steel string fingerboards. A few have blemishes that will fall outside of the pattern. They are all about 3/8" thick.

I have 50 of these in total that I will sell, but the ones in the picture are a good representative sample. Feel free to pick the ones you want or ask me to choose for you (they are all nice).

We will run this until they are gone. But this is a good price and I suspect they will go QUICK.

Good luck.

Brock, I will take #15 and then one more that I ask that you choose for me. I want it chosen on the basis of whichever one you think will build the stiffest fingerboard possible.

Also, how much will shipping be?

Thanks,

Jonas Baker

I can get them posted in a couple of days. I wasn't sure if everyone needed to see the other 32 of them or not. This is a pretty good representative sample. They are all great.

Hey Brock,

I'm with Brad on seeing pics if possible. If I could get a couple like #18 & #14 I'd buy a total of 3.
