Curly Ebony Fingerboard 720×75×9 mm MB Exclusive Nº5

Curly Ebony Fingerboard 720×75×9 mm MB Exclusive Nº5

Ebony is one of the reference woods for fingerboards thanks to its extreme hardness, dimensional stability and very fine pores. These properties provide a fast, precise feel, outstanding wear resistance and a clear response on every note. On electric basses, this results in greater definition, sustain and control, even under intensive playing.

This piece features a natural curly figure, a subtle undulation visible depending on the angle of light. It shows no light streaks, but rather a black ebony with an elegant, discreet curl that adds an exclusive appearance while preserving the classic character of the wood. An ideal choice for high-end and custom bass projects.

Compatibility and format

With dimensions of 720 × 75 × 9 mm (28-3/8" × 2-15/16" × 3/8"), this fingerboard is suitable for 4-string electric basses with long scale. It provides sufficient working margin to shape and prepare the fingerboard according to the requirements of each project, while maintaining the stability expected from high-density ebony.
