Hi everyone, just a quick question regarding custom fretboards. I am starting to gather parts for my short scale 10 string project, and haven't had much luck finding a pre-made replacement fretboard.
It will be a 10 string steel with parallel spacing (3/8"), 22 1/2 inch scale. I love the look of the Sho-Bud replacements, though they all seem to be the longer PSG scale (obviously...)
I have tried searching the archives, but have not found a silk screened style fretboard in a short scale.
Does anyone know of a custom builder who can make one-offs? (Ouch! Now that's starting to sound expensive).
Thanks guys _________________ If it’s on the ground it can’t fall down. |

Hi Dean.
I can make one for you if you like, not expensively!
Laser engraved & cut, with whatever design you want for position markers etc.
Self adhesive backing ( just peel & stick )
Just let me know the dimensions etc.
I've done a few for various projects & they've all looked sweet.
There's a photo of one in this thread ...
PM me if you're interested! |

Chris, just had a look at the fretboard you posted the link for, and all I can say is WOW!
I didn't imagine I would get a response this fast, and your work is beautiful. I am sending you a PM now!
Gotta love the SGF. _________________ If it’s on the ground it can’t fall down. |
