Somewhat Daft Question(re:Diamondwood)

Is it possible to get a diamondwood board, or a birdseye diamondwood fingerboard with an inlay, either Roscoe's standard or custom?

What's up Bill?
I'll watch this one with curiosity although I believe that Gard's answer will be no due to the fact that playing a fretless note on the inlay would sound quite whimpy as compared to the diamondwood (unless they would agree to do an inlay made of diamondwood material).

Not much Joe, at the moment, for now it's mostly curiosity myself.

Interesting question Bill, curious to see what folks say.

Hope Spike is doing better!

He's well on the mend now Pete, starting to get up to mischief.

Glad to hear Spike is doing better!

On the inlay, since we only offer diamondwood as a fretless fingerboard, and inlays on fretless are not a very good idea, no, we wouldn't. Sorry!

Cheers Gard!


That's about what I expected to hear, still, as they say, "You never know if you don't ask."
