Our kiln-dried ebony fingerboard has flat undersides, is unfretted (no inlays), and is ready for trimming to fit a variety of neck widths.
This slotted fingerboard for Gibson Guitar features:
24.562" scale
12" radius
24 fret slots
Note: Gibson® guitar scale is commonly referred to as 24-3/4" but is actually 24.562".
This is the most common of three different scales described as 24-3/4" by Gibson over the years. Many Gibson's have alternate scale lengths—please measure your guitar before ordering!
Tip: For 20-fret necks, simply cut off the four highest slots.
