Was at my local wood shop... they have a sick selection of wood... including this insane pallet of what must be 2-3000 indian rosewood fingerboards.
This is the shop BTW... about 2 minutes from my office.

I bought the one on the bottom, for $12. But I dug through maybe 30 before I picked, and I could have searched forever. What I really wished was that I needed a few more... if I could have bought 20 I think I would have been satisfied.
Yeah. You can definitely get them cheaper online, but to me it's worth it to pay 2 or 3 bucks more and be able to pick the one you want. Now I just need a nice piece of wood for the rest of the neck...
yeah, almost to pretty to mess up with those ungainly frets! :)
Sounds like it's time for the fretless strat. 8-)
yep, that's what I'm thinking.
