    We did send some feedback a few months ago, but more about the blemishes we were seeing on some of the Blackwood fretboards.

    If the consensus is that the Blackwood is no good, then we need to explore other options; although options are limited.

    We are certainly ordering more Ebony and Maple fretboards now and keeping the Blackwood to a minimum. Ebony doesn't suit every guitar and it does add a bit to the cost.

    I have asked the factory if they are exploring any other fretboard options, like Bubinga. Will advise their response.
    Cheers,

    Adam

    What about Pau Ferro Fender is using it on most of their Squire guitars?
